My uncle Russell will always be in my heart. He's a great man. Some memories of Uncle Russell: We traveled a lot together in the RV - to Florida, Maine and Wisconsin. It's funny, every time we entered a new state, he'd pull over and take a picture of the sign. At the state line, he would tell me were going on a 20 min hike or bike ride but it would always turn out to be an 1 1/2 hike or bike ride. But I must say that I always learned something new every time. He was very knowledgeable about places we would travel to. He was always very prepared. When he was planing our travels he made two reservations at two different RV camps. So if one was a not so nice, we'd just go to the other campground. One time it was about 10pm and we made a wrong turn down a dead-end street. We had to disconnect the car we were towing so we could turn around. As we were doing this another car drove by us going really slow and passed us by like three times. You never saw two guys move so fast to get out of there. Kinda scary at the time, but we laughed about it later. He taught me everything there's to know about that RV.
Thoughout my life he took me under his wing and taught me so much about electronics, plumbing...he taught me about life. I was lucky enough to be able to work for him and he showed me how to fix TVs, VCRs, microwaves and air conditioners. I use the knowledge everyday now. Not only was he my Uncle, he was a great friend. I feel honored to have him as my uncle. He would give the shirt off his back for his family and friends. He's a very good hearted person. He was always out to learn new things and he did. I will miss our adventures together. Im sure he's in heaven looking down on us being proud of his family and friends. There's not a day that goes by I don't think about him. He is a very important part of my life. Uncle Russell, I miss you very much. You will always be in my heart. Thank you for everything you've done for me. I love you Uncle Russell.
