"Our heartfelt sympathy to all the family. I still remember meeting your Father, Tracy, during one of our visits. He was very kind and quiet spoken, but happy to see us! May we all live our lives well for as long as we are able. God Bless."

"Russ, my heart breaks when I think about how long it’s been since I’ve seen you. Some of our last memories together maybe not being the best because well… I might have been a pain in the butt… but you did eat all my chocolates 🍫 haha. It’s okay, I think it’s a funny little memory for us both.You showed me a love for golf that no one else did, you took the time and countless hours to show me the basics and get me to a point where I knew enough that I just really needed practice. You took me and bought me my first set of clubs (and only set of clubs). I fondly look back at those times and wish you were still here so I could tell you how much those times meant to me and how much I think about them.I might have been a pain in your ass, but we both know you loved me ;) I know you’re no longer in pain and living it up in the clouds. Rest In Peace… Until we meet again."
