Larger Than Life

Remembering Russ 

   Pick out the least likely guy in a crowd and you will probably be looking at one of my hearts closest friends, it's always been that way and with Russ it was no exception.

    

     For over 6 years this larger than life, energetic, colorful, tattooed, sometimes long haired, bearded, loud, old guy was one of the most consistent parts of my life.

     Russ and I worked side by side, 6 days a week, 10 hours a day down in the trenches trying to help manage a large telemarketing room. You really get to know someone you work that closely with.

   This Wednesday, we will say our final good-byes to Russ, his wife let us know today that he passed away. Don't have all of the details yet, she was in no condition to talk long. I guess we will know more tomorrow.

So sorry to hear it, Coy. He looks like one of those guys who lived life to the fullest.  My thoughts are with you, it's a tough time of year to lose a friend or loved one.  hugs, Albert
