Dear Ida-Mae
My mother, (Maureen Fair) just called to tell me that Russ had passed away.
I wanted to write to say how sorry I am and that I thought Russ was one of the nicest men I ever met.
I called my father (Bud Emery) to let him know and he was so sorry to hear this news. He proceeded to tell me stories about how you’d all met years ago.
When I was in my first year of university at U. of C. Russ would come to Eaton’s (where I was working) every Friday night to say hello and check on how I was doing. I thought he was a wonderful man.
My deepest condolences to you, Michelle, Debbie and your entire family.
Much love,
Kerry Fennell
