BOB ABERNETHY: Our top story this week is the death of Mother Teresa. While the world was still mourning the death of Princess Diana came the sad news that the beloved Roman Catholic nun had died Friday of a massive heart attack. She was 87. Known as Calcutta's Saint of the Gutter, she was equally at ease with the poorest of the poor and the world's leaders. She founded the Missionaries of Charity order in Calcutta in 1950 and spent the rest of her life caring for the destitute -- and neglected. In 1979, Mother Teresa was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.Mother TERESA: And the joy acknowledging that the poorest of the poor are our brothers and sisters.
ABERNETHY: Joining us to talk about Mother Teresa is Father Thomas Reese, a senior fellow at Georgetown University's Woodstock Theological Center. Father, thank you for being with us.
What is Mother Teresa's legacy? How will she be remembered?


Rev. REESE: Oh, she was a tough lady. She was very focused, very focused on her mission to help the world.
