On behalf of myself and many members of St Peter's Drum Corps I would like to express our sincere sympathy to Russ' family. Russ was well liked in the corps as well as respected as a fine drummer and bus driver for us.
Please knoiw that Russ' name has been placed on St Peter's deceased members list and will be read every Memorial Day at the 8am Mass at St Peter;s Church in Torrington,
Ct. .I personally will always value the relationship i shared with Russ.

Still have some fond memories of Russell and I playing together in the 1940's. We lived within a couple of houses of each other on Cook Ave in Meriden.
