I will always remember that smile and friendly greeting of his. I will miss getting to see him and talk about our times pheasant hunting with Steve and Todd, loved those times spent together. Rest In Peace, till we meet again.

To my best growing-up childhood- memories cousin. I'll never forget the fun we had with your pony (Champ) and your baby pig too. You were so generous with all your comic books. I'll always remember you Russ.
Love, Nancy ( Anderson )Sikkema

To the family of Russ Anderson. You have my deepest sympathies. I have not seen Russ in some time. But I have great memories. I used to drive past his house on Fish Hatchery just so I could honk and yell to him. He was a wonderful man. He always greeted me with a huge smile and a good firm handshake. One of the very few people that I didn't mind calling me Jimmy. So sorry for your loss. Respectfully . Jimmy Snow.
