I had the pleasure of meeting Russel when my mom, Jeannie Schultz, was in Life Care Center of Richland. Russel was a dear, sweet man. I loved hearing his stories about him growing up farming and his red truck. Russel loved his family; you could see that in his eyes when he spoke about them. He adored his wife, Elsie.
Russel is in loving hands now, with our Saviour.
And, by the way, now Russel can now stop poking me with his cane!
Love, Sally Grego
My prayers are with your family at this time. I lost both my parents this year thirteen days apart. I know they are together watching over us as your husband, father, grandfather is. It is very hard to let a loved one go but he is in a much better place now. My prayers are with you. Dorene Zyph Bishop
