Michael Russell Obituary
He was the fourth son of William Russell Sr. and Josephine "Josie" (Martorana) Russell, and the grandson of Teresa and Salvatore Martorana. He was predeceased by his parents, William and Josephine Russell, and by his brothers, Alan Russell and David Russell (Deni).
Michael worked at Raytheon's in his younger years and was also employed at Walt Disney World before moving to Maine.
He was a beloved brother and friend to many. He enjoyed riding his Harley-Davidson motorcycle in the warmer months, playing the guitar, and creating artwork. He had a longtime companion in his dog, Sheeba.
He is survived by his brothers, William Russell Jr. of Massachusetts and Ronald Russell of Florida; and his sister, Darlene Smith (Russell) of Maine. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews and many great-nieces and great-nephews.
Michael was a loving brother and uncle and will be greatly missed.
