RIP Russell, you were a great neighbour.
What started as mowing your lawn during the summer turned into my first job working with you in the scrap metal business. We would seperate all of the different metals in your yard.
Lots of great laughs in your truck.
Can hear you say “How You Dave” everytime I look at the picture.
