I worked with Russ between his oil truck stints in Woburn, where he drove truck for Plymouth Enterprise. Along with Chuck "Weasley" Bourne, we had many a laugh featuring Russ and his country style humor. He loved to find fun in all things and I will never forget him.

Dave, Donna, Christie and Andrew,
Jane and I were so sorry to hear about the loss of your brother and uncle. We are thinking of you constantly. I didn't know Russell, but I know you. If there's anything you need, please call. When you get down to it, the truly important things we have are family and friends. You have many friends, and I consider myself lucky to be among them.
