Dear Peggy,

I was so saddened to learn of Russ' passing. There aren't enough adjectives to describe him. Russ was a true gentleman; trustworthy, wise, honest, caring, and always willing to help, wherever he could. Russ will be truly missed. Know that you, and your family, are in my thoughts and prayers.
