Sharon, Chris, & Danny,
I am very sorry to hear about your loss. Russ was a very good man and someone I was proud to call a friend. Even though I have not been in Trenton for many years, I still think of my "Trenton Family" often. Russ taught many things about canning and also life. He was a very important influence for me. My prayers go out to you in this time of loss.

Kevin
