Russ, Ted and I will always remember our hikes with you in mountains behind your house. We enjoyed that time with you and think of it often. I'm sure Ted will never forget everything you taught him about the lumber business. You were a great friend to him and he has only the highest respect for you. You will be missed. Our prayers and thoughts are with your family.
