At the end of a ceremony that mixed personal remembrance of Rush Hudson Limbaugh Sr. and allusions to the difficulties of constructing the building named in his honor, family members and dignitaries cut the ribbon at Cape Girardeau's new federal courthouse.
The building is a fitting tribute to Limbaugh, said his son, retired U.S. District Judge Stephen N. Limbaugh Sr. His expressed hope is that his father's devotion to the law will inspire the attorneys who practice there. "He lived it, he breathed it," Limbaugh Sr. said. "He loved it and it was his virtual life."
As he spoke of his grandfather, Stephen Limbaugh Jr. recalled his work ethic, which kept him at his desk six days a week almost to the end of his life in 1996 at age 104, and his example of respect for others and clients, regardless of their ability to pay.
"He taught a course in civility like he taught a course in work ethic," Limbaugh said.

Thanks for posting, LV. I heard Rush talking about this on Friday. What a great American family they are, the Limbaughs. We are blessed.
Now, someone get busy chiselling his visage on Mt. RUSH-more...:^).
*Rush ping*
LOL! Great idea La Enchiladita ;o)
Not a lot of folks will see this in Gen/Chat so if you could ping your list it would help...i just pinged what was visible to me from the Rush thread. ;o)
Special ping.
Deserves every bit of that $400M contract
In post #2 I think that’s Rush just to the right of the lady on the first row ...
I think so too;^).
Looking terrific.
Thanks so much, Dita! What a lovable little fuzzball! ;)
Rush, PLEASE start talking about Odinga.

How about Obama openly campaigning for his communist cousin Odinga who signed a pact with Muslims to enact Sharia Law if elected and started riots when he lost. Obama campaigned for an openly Anti-American candidate in a foreign country in 2006 at taxpayer expense.
What an honor to the memory of Rush Hudson Limbaugh Sr. Congratulations to the Limbaugh Family! :)
Congratulations to you and your whole family, Rush! As members of your long-time extended family in talk-radio-land, I think I can speak for all of us when I say how proud we are today!
