Russ was a beautiful human being. I got to know him well during his time at T-Mobile and we became like brothers. Any convo I had with him instantly brightened my day. His charm, his smile, and his laugh lit up a room. I was in the process of bringing him back as a contractor so he could be a part of us again. Because we missed him so much. My heart hurts for his family. I love and miss you brother.
Thomas and Donna…I’m so sorry for the loss of this beautiful soul….praying for your families

Dear Donna and Thomas,
May the Lord bless you and keep you. You have my sincerest sympathy. –Kevin Dillon
Thomas, I was broken hearted to get this news from Tom. When I saw the photo with him playing an instrument, I was taken back to the days when we sang together. I imagine he used his gifts the way you did and touched many hearts. As a mom of three boys, I cannot comprehend the great loss you and your family have experienced in this difficult time. Wish I could have known him. Love, peace and comfort to you all.
