I just wanted to express my condolences to the family and friends of Russ. I met Russ through church but he and my father's family have a long history. Russ and my relatives attended school in Hesperia together and also went to the same church. He and my father worked together for many years at the Post Office. Russ had a delightful personality and was one of the nicest people I know. Though it's hard to lose a loved one during the holidays, it's also comforting to know, as we begin a new year, he is now reunited with his wife and the loved ones who've passed before us and will be waiting with that warm smile to greet us when we make that journey. May God Bless and Comfort You!##imported-begin##Jim Heckathorn##imported-end##
