It is called the " Greatest Generation" because of people like Mike Russo, who worshipped his God, loved his family, defended his country, and served his fellow man. While our hearts are heavy today, we know you are now resting in peace and have been reunited with those you love. God Bless You!

Mike and family sorry about the los of your dad. He was good father, husband and public servent. You can't much more from anyone.

My condolences to the Russo Family. I will always remember Mike and Rita fondly. They were married 11/22/1945 which was Thanksgiving Day and the same day I was born. Rita and I used to kid each other about knowing how many years they were married and how old I was!

Mike, sincere sympathy to your family. I enjoyed popping in to see you for a few minutes when visiting my brother-in-law at Wingate. Sincerely, Jackie Graveline.

Mr . Russo was a very special man and will be missed by all who knew him. "The Furnace" was one of a kind and always a joy to visit. I especially loved listening to all his stories. His sense of humor was like no other and that smile was contagious. I'm so happy and honored to have known him.

My condolences to the Russo family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
