During his stay at Curtis Memorial Hospital this past winter, Russell gained a great buddy Wilf Genge (and family) who treated him as if they knew him all his life. Russell spoke fondly of everyone and anyone who touched his life is any way possible. Predeceased by his loving wife Helen; Parents Alpheaus and Mary; Son Kim; Daughter Jennifer; Brothers Dave, Bill, Les, Amos, Cecil and Alpheaus; Sisters Rita and Mathilda.
