Patty and Cheryl,
So sorry to hear of your dad passing. I remember all the bikes he would fix for all the kids on Riverside! Please let me know when memorial will be.

Mom (Jean Lehman Boyd Sherman) and I would visit Russ when we went to Decatur. Mom grew up with Russ and it was so much fun for the two of them to talk about grade school friends and activities they had done. Russ always remembered more than Mom, and she said he had such a wonderful memory. He could name names of kids they went to school with etc. We will miss our visits, and know God will watch over him in heaven. He was such a very special friend.
Love, Marcia Henson & Jean Sherman
Patty, Wendy and I are so sorry to learn of your father's passing. We will never forget the wonderful day we spent with you, Mike and Russ. Russ certainly filled-in a lot of family history for me and for that I'll always be grateful.
Love,
Rich & Wendy Isome
