We will miss seeing Russ on our visits home. We could always count on him for a smile or, more often than not, a good-natured jest! He was a wonderful neighbour to us kids growing up, and always took a sincere interest in where our lives had taken us more recently. Scott and I are so happy that we were able to have both Russ and Donna in attendance at our wedding a few years ago. Russ’s absence will be palpable on Francis Street but he will always be remembered fondly.
Donna, Jim & Deb and families.
Our deepest sympathy on the passing of Russ. Treasure your family memories as you look back on a life well lived.
Glenn & Sue and family
