My dearest soul father will be deeply missed. He had lived a simple life and rooted in family values. Russell hear was always remembering someone and calling them to say "Hello" He had always connected to relatives by saying happy anniversary or a birthday. The person who had always mentored to be a father.
Barbara: I was so sorry to hear of Russel's passing. I know you will miss him terribly. Please accept my deepest sympathy at this time. Sincerely, Ruth Hillenbrand
