Roger Lee Russell

Met Roger in mid ~70s. He was LA and I was OK with UPS. Quite the raconteur. If you were with Roger for dinner in NOL you were in for a grand evening! Start at Ralph and Kaku's then to at least 4 other places. He knew who had the best food course in town. A good man who will be missed.

So sad to hear! He was such a nice man! Always happy and smiling! Loved talking to him when he was volunteering at North Oaks. I'll miss him.

It was through FaceBook we were able to keep in contact -- it has been many years since were were together in one place at the same time. I have been tring to do family generations and it was thorugh Roger that I was able to keep in contact with many of the Ohio/Mississippi cousins. He will be truyly missed.

To Nancy (Sarge) and the entire Russell family, my condolences.

The first time I met Roger was in the early 1960s in Toledo, Ohio. We followed each other around the country, first in Louisiana, then Texas, then finally in Greenwich, Connecticut. In all that time he was a great friend and a great fellow UPSer. So hard working, so smart, great sense of humor, and so loyal. I know he will be missed by all who knew him.

Such a loss to us all, friends and strangers alike, as Roger had that rare gift of making each person he met feel special. He brightened the day for more people than he realized.

We will always treasure our visits with Roger--! Every time we pass by the house in Ruidoso, we think of him and Nancy and wish they were still there! Love to all of you. We will miss that smile and quick wit!

To Roger's entire family - So sorry to hear of Roger's passing. I was a maid in his court when he was Emperor Caesar V in the Krewe of Caesar. Those were fun times and will always remember how kind & friendly he was. My thoughts & prayers are with all of you at this time of sorrow. May your memories bring you comfort.
