I've been a little late to post this (things have been busy!), but as you know Russ worked for different newspapers all around the country. People all over stepped up and on June 19th, Russ' obituary was published in the Los Angeles Times, Orlando Sentinel, Daily Press, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, San Antonio Express-News, San Diego Union-Tribune, and the Wisconsin State Journal. 8 different newspapers!
The full obituary is located here.
We're looking forward to seeing everyone at Russ' Celebration of Life on Saturday!
I had the pleasure to meet Russ during his San Diego days, the last time I saw him in person was for a lunch of carnitas tacos and Ballast Point Beer - Sculpin. I toasted this one to him on Wednesday. "Here's to a life well lived!" RIP Russ.
What a wonderful description of a full life. Thank you for sharing. Raise many toasts to Russ on Saturday!
That is a fantastic picture of Russ!
