Russell Charles Magnuson

I never met Russell but see he was just a few years older than me. I got these postcards at an estate sale years ago, and for some reason I found them sitting out in my den recently. When looking at the address I also realized we grew up not too far apart. I felt a need to share these with his family and those who knew him. They are a part of his history.

Sorry for your loss. I have no words to say about R. C. Manunson. I never met the man. Actually, he lived years before me. My family moved to Homewood in 1969. Some years ago I obtained a couple of postcards dated in 1957 that were addressed to him. Only today (11/25/24) did I notice the address, not far from where I live today. To me, these are part of his family history and I would gladly return them if I knew how to reach his family. The cards were addressed to "Master Russell...

I loved Russell like a dad. It saddens me to see him pass. My love to his family.

Dorothy, This is such sad news. I'm so sorry about your loss. I'll be praying that God's love is evident to you in wonderful ways as you face each difficult day. I sing soprano with you and Bebe. Blessings, Lida

Dear Dorothy and Family: my family and I share your loss and have you all in our prayers..Love, Jane Johns

You'll always be a song in my heart. You'll be sorely missed.

Dorothy,Julie,Norman & Family,
I am so terribly sorry. Russell was such a great guy and we love all of you so much. Daddy always reminded me of the words from an anthem. "Souls of the righteous in the hands of God." He is in the hands of God. Please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. We will get in touch when we come back in town.
Love,
Bebe and William

Dot and Family
