To the family, coworkers and friends of Mr. Short, I wanted to express my sympathy. I was shocked and saddened by the news of his passing. My wife, Sherrion Pugh Struppler is interested in genealogy and found out some time ago that she and Mr. Short's mother, Ms. Gray, are distant cousins. Once again, my thoughts are with you all.

Short Family,
My prayers are with you today. I attended WBHS with Russell and was one of 6 couples that hung around together for many years on SML. As we all went our separate ways, I continued to bump into Russell at many functions. Russell was special, he always had time to talk even tho he was a busy man.I have nothing but good things to say about your father. He was one of the most respected business men I ever knew and a true gentleman.
