Lynn, we were very sad to hear of Russ's passing. Larry always enjoyed stopping by to "see what Russ is up to...". So many bikes and vehicles over the many years, came by way of Russ's Auto to our driveway and garage...We will always remember that quick humor, and sparkle in Russ's eyes...truly one of the good guys gone too soon...needed elsewhere.
