I liked Tony Snow so much subbing for Rush, that I started watching his FOX News Sunday show when I heard him mention it. And that led to watching many other FOX programs, especially Special Report, with Brit Hume. And we’re still loyal FOX fans!

Here was a guy that “got it,” who was approachable, funny, confident, clever, and patriotic. Life is so short.

When CPAC was meeting in DC, Tony gave the FReepers who followed his radio show an open invitation to stop by and visit the studio in DC. I took him up on the invite. He arranged for the security documents we needed to get in.

Tony was gracious, inviting us into his office and chatted with us for over an hour. A little about politics, but most of the talk was about our families.

Tony's children had just gotten their report cards and he was so proud of their accomplishments.

You can tell a lot about a person by their surroundings. Tony had photos of his wife and children. Drawings his children had done were posted all around his office.

The FReepers who followed the show arranged for us to give Toy some gifts, including a cussin' jar for his radio show. I suspect Bob Beckel put more than one quarter in it.

We also gave him a Pajama Patrol badge, and few other FR items.

Then we got the tour of the studio we met Surfer Boy and then went into his radio studio. What a MESS, but cool. We sat in while he did a Vermont Teddy Bear commercial. I have several photos of our mtg. If you google Tony Snow cussin' jar a photo of Tony will show up, that was part of that meeting.

Been gone all day and dashed to the keyboard to add my “Happy Birthday” prayers for Tony before midnight. Thank you Loud Mime for posting this thread. Not sure I can remember how anymore.

Loud Mime, I see you have retired......congratulations. More time to write more books?! I was surprised that saveliberty didn’t make it here. Hope she is OK. Good to see SnowFlake mware made it. Lastly, great pix of Tony. (Of course, that is your specialty) Glad to see Jay Carney step down. He was awful & every time I saw him, I couldn’t help but think of how terrific Tony was. As was Dana Perino who Tony mentored. These past 5+ years under Obama have been awful. Midnight has passed so I am off, perhaps to sleep? Thank you again so very much for keeping the Tony Snow flame alive.
