July 27th 2024 I just learned of Russ passing because I had wondered what ever happened to him. I met Russ in 1974 at Advent Christian Church. He was a strong believer who loved the lord. He was much older but I remember him. May he be blessed.

Thinking of you, Rusty, I am so sorry about Uncle Ross. I was so lucky to have seen him several times at breakfast with my Mom. We had many laughs together, and it was a wonderful to spend time with him.
