How I wish I had a photo of Russell and my mother walking down the stairs of Victoria's place, or of him opening the door to his office and she sat in the waiting room in tears he always had a smile for my mother. The photo is in my head it's a gray that my soul because he cared he really cared.
I was just a girl a young girl and I did not know the pain of divorce. I do know that he was a blessing too my mother in a very sad time of her life. I will always admire and be inspired by you Mr. Russell Kubyn. Missed tremendously.
Sincerely,
Allie Kamara

My first memory of Russ is because of our dogs. First we were in the same obedience classes. Later, the same conformation show handling classes.
Often he appeared reserved and serious but I´ll never forget his disarming smile and laugh. He was incredibly proud of his and Stacey´s dogs. Your work on Earth is done, Russ. Rest peacefully.

I had a brief chance to speak with Russ regarding the debacle the legal system left my granddaughters in. I found Russ to be a compassionate and understanding person that truly wanted to help. Russ gave me hope. I am so sorry for the family of Russ.

Russ was definitely a force to be reckoned with. Told it like it was and went to the mat for his clients. From working with him in the clerks office to becoming a client, he was the best. And that laugh, oh that laugh! He will be missed.

Not sure if I have a first memory, but I do have a favorite. Spending they day at a dog show with Russ and Stacey, pictured below. I found Russ's off the cuff humor legendary, as he always had witty, blunt, yet absolutely perfect comebacks that I continue to laugh about, even to this day. Russ was a great extended friend through his wife, who I consider my sister. I will miss being a third party to their everyday life together and being referred to as the "oracle". Thank you for being my friend and I promise to always be there for Stacey...

My husbands & I first memory of him, was enlisting his help in a custody case for my husbands daughter. He was genuine, and you could just see the depth of how much he cared for his clients & "our" child in his eyes. Although our time with him has been cut short, in the court room he has proven to be a force. He had a light heart & found humor in every " serious " pre-court talk he had with my Husband.

You will be so missed & we are so grateful for everything you´ve done thus far for our family russ. We hope you rest easy.

My first memory of Russ is when I started working at the clerk of courts legal office. I have to say that he intimidated me at first but then I quickly realized that he was harmless. Later on while getting ready to file for divorce from my husband I enlisted the help of Russ. He is definitely a forced to be reckoned with. He will truly be missed.Yvonne Alston - legal deputy clerk at LCCP and former client
May you rest in peace Russ
