    Born December 20, 1944
    Died April 21, 1990
    In Memory of Russell
    We lost someone with a heart of gold
    Who was more to us than wealth untold
    Without farewell he fell asleep
    With only memories for us to keep
    We have lost, but God has gained
    One of the best the world contained.
