Russ made a positive impact to the community and was a privilege to know. Our condolence to the family.

Our condoles to the family of Russ Slinkard. We will miss him. He was a wonderful man. God bless

Russ ministered to my family at the Methodist Church in Virginia, IL many years ago. Imagine my surprise on my 1st day of employment at Illinois Bell in 1980 when Russ remembered me from long ago.

A wonderful person . A real asset to the Joliet community.
