My Dad passed away last Friday, August 15th, 2008 at the age of 63. He's had many health issues the last few years and he was never able to recover from them. Last Saturday at his funeral I was able to reflect on our relationship and what I've learned from him. What I know for sure about my Dad is that he had a great love for life, he was an extreme optimist and his glass was always full. He taught me to be a dreamer, to work hard and never give up. Our family will miss him very much.

Susan & Annie - this compilation was amazing - the blend of pictures and lovely music was just right. What a beautiful family you all are! Greg & I watched it together and we've come to the conclusion that the Russell's have very dominant jeans - all your kids look like you and your siblings, i.e. your mom and dad! Tell your mom I know where your both your good looks come from you, Annie and her are triplets! It was fun fun to get to know your family more through this tribute. Kudos for your hard work and talent putting it together.
I just realized I used the word jeans instead of genes - ha, ha, silly me it's late. I should probably preview my comments before posting...
Suz-
