That was a great tribute to a wonderful human being. Wynton Marsalis' tribute was great!

Cosign! I almost choked up when the cameraman and Jimmy Buffett was getting emotional.

I caught the last 30 min. (luckily I recorded it on my DVR). This just confirms what we already knew Ed Bradley was truly a cool dude. RIP Ed. Thanks for the memories.

This made me cry.
DSTCHAOS, also if you have OnDemand on your cable, they've been showing some repeats of CBS shows. Check and see if this is on it.

This tribute was really an honor to everything he did and who he truly was. It captured every aspect of his life from "Butch" Bradley to his love of jazz music and Jimmy Buffet (who knew!). He will be missed.

The tribute to Ed was a moving and emotional celebration of his contributions to broadcast journalism. 60 Minutes also did a good job at showcasing Ed Bradley, the man. I couldn't help but cry. We have lost a true icon.

I finally watched the whole show last night and I cried so much. I never watched 60 Minutes much but was always fond of Ed Bradley. In a way, he reminds me of my grandfather. Kudos to 60 Minutes as well. They did a EXCELLENT tribute.

I DVRd it before leaving for a concert last night. Watched it this morning and they certainly did right by him

I watched the tribute last night, and I was very moved. Ed Bradley's talent, intelligence, and compassion will be missed.

I set up my VCR to tape 60 Minutes before I left to go out, and what about the damn VCR blanked out, and I didn't get to see it.....I really hope that they rerun that episode.
