How very sad and what a terrible loss to everyone who knew Russ. He was my best friend from kindergarten through our college years. We were inseperable as friends and I have always loved him dearly. My only regret is that the years and miles seperated us and our friendship. May God's blessings and peace be with his friends and family. I'll miss you my friend.

I grew up with Russell in Prospect Ohio we spent alot of time together as friends, I especially like going to his house because of all the animals he had on his farm, and not your run of the mill animals either, all I remember are those peacocks yelling and chasing us thru their pens, Russell was a good friend and I will always remember him, rest in peace my good friend.

I am so sorry about your Dad. He was a wonderful man who loved you very much. Even though he is not with you in a physical way, he will always be with you in your heart.
If you ever need anything, please find me at school. I would love to talk, cry or laugh with you.
My prayers and love go out to all of you.
