CandleI married into the family and from the first time I met uncle Russ and aunt Anne they made m3 feel welcome and were always so much fun.

My fondest memories of Uncle Russ were the times spent with him when I would come down to Florida to visit. He was such a kind, warm person. I was so touched when his dog, Misty became sick, his deep love for his pet cold be seen . And he adored Aunt Anne. To me, they were the embodiment of what a long happy marriage can be. I can only imagine the great reunion of those two soulmates that's going on right now. My heart goes out to Uncle Russ's family in your loss.

To Russell Jr., Karen and Bill, we're so sorry for your loss.

Uncle Russ was such a kind and giving person who positively impacted the lives of anyone lucky enough to have known him. We always enjoyed seeing our favorite uncle on his trips to Canada with his beloved Anne. There are so many great memories from those days that we'll cherish forever.
Rest in peace Uncle Russ. You were loved more than you ever knew.

Uncle Russ was such a wonderful man. His family was the most important thing in his life and he always did his very best to take care of them. I never heard him say a harsh word against anyone and he definitely was of the old school when men were gentlemen. I'm happy to think of him being with Aunt Anne again. They enjoyed a wonderful love and were an inspiration to others. Home Depot and Lowes will definitely miss him
