Sorry to hear about your lost love one. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Ray Russell (he may be related to you) Please contact me. Ray lived with his Mother back in the 1950's and early 60's. He lived in West Seneca close to the Lackawanna line and we played in a band. He's a very good friend of mine but lost track of him. Please help if you can. Thank you. Al Reiller [email protected]

Harry, Ellen, Dukie, Marc, and Ann-Marie,
I'm so sorry for your loss. What a fun and great person D was. I would come over to visit Ellen and have just as much fun with D and Harry! She was a loyal softball fan and always so much fun to be around. I'll never forget her and the great memories. Thanks for sharing her with us!

You are the epitamy of "Mother", even to those who were not born of you. You are a rock that all could count on to be there for any reason. Your wisdom and guidance are treasured forever. Your Grand daughters, Diane and Delia have great traits inherited from you which will be carried through generations. We will always love you and cherish your memory. Love from, Diane and Delia Russell.

I am so sorry about Di's death. Even my kids called her Aunt Di. Just know our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I'll always remember our times at Beaver Island and all the Whelan parties. She was truly a wonderful lady. I know my sister Aunt Dar will truly miss her. She would call Diane, Colleen and myself almost every day. She will be missed by a great many people.
