Russ wasn’t a man for formality—he was most at ease outdoors, in a flannel shirt, with a fishing rod or rifle in his hand. He’ll be laid to rest in his favorite flannel, and we invite everyone to come as they are. Comfortable clothes are welcome, and if you have flannel or plaid, please feel free to wear it in his honor. No suits required. Thank you for loving him with us.
