To The Andrews Family: Marie, Tim, Terry, Rick and Families: My sincere sympathy to each and everyone. What a difficult time!!I have such fond memories of Russell, remembering his working days, unloading the truck in front of Sears. He always looked so happy and carefree, enjoying his job. His smile was so warm - someone you could feel so comfortable around. He loved his golf, especially when he was on the greens with Tim and Terry. What great memories you share.

Dear Marie and family, Our deepest sympathy to you and your extended family as you deal with terrible double loss in your life. We can not imagine how hard it has been to help your family see the love both Beth and Russ brought to your life and home. Russ was truly special, always with a smile and a warm welcome whether at Tim Hortons or at church where we shared our friendship over the many years, both living throught death too soon and too close together. We wish we were closer but always know our love and prayers are with you.

We are thinking of you at this time.

I still remember when your family first came to Mount Forest and when Russ bought dad's truck for delivering goods to the local businesses off the train. The three important men in my life from that time have now all passed...Russ, Norm Tressider and of course Jim Moore! They will always be in my memory.

— Barry & Thelma Rawn & family, February 11, 2012

I was sad to hear of Russ's passing. I have great memories of him. During my college years, I would return home on weekends to work at our Coffee Shop. Russ and Marie would come in every Saturday for a hamburger or toasted western for lunch (funny how we remember these small things). Russ was always reminding me that I should be "cracking the books and not the beer". Upon paying the bill, he would always leave me a generous tip with a message that it was to be put towards food and books and nothing else. He was a very caring and loving father type of person, always concerned about my marks and my well being. He will be missed! Losing loved ones is a difficult time to get through, lean on your family, friends and the memories...as they help make this rough road smooth again!

— Shelley Weber, February 11, 2012
