So Sad ! Just got a call today from a friend letting me know that Russ has passed. Russ was a Sweet and Great guy. I met him when I Bartended at Smokey's He helped me out several times. Once he kept a eye out on my house and fed my fish, when I was out of town. Helped me and came around when I had foot surgery, was on crutches. Loved his Smile ! He was a Good Pool player. We would play cards at the bar after it slowed down. About 5 of us. Then we would at times go to my place and play. Had so much Fun. Sorry that we didn't keep in touch once I moved to the Southside. May the Good Lord be with the Family and MYRIP Russ Love Ya !!
