Few people prosess the gift to stand up for right and to point out wrong as Russ was able to do in a style that was steadfast to his convictions.
I met Russ some 20 years ago, and liked the man right away. I feel a better person because of knowing him; and his style will continue to influance me.
Russ will surely be missed by family and friends; especially, me.

Russ was a dear friend of our father. Russ was also a second father to us, a wonderful and trusted family friend, and great fishing companion to Spence and the boys. Our love and sympathy to his family.

Mr. "B", as I always affectionately called him, was my boss beginning in 1960 and from time to time throughout the rest of his years on earth. His passing will leave a vacant spot in my heart. He was a dear person, and I will truly miss him.
