"To Russ : you were a great son, brother and friend and from stories I feel like I?ve known you forever. Rest In Peace my man and hope to make it next to you soon. To Family : Jeenie and Papa D - you brought Russ into this world with love, you nurtured him thru child and adulthood, and should be at peace to know that few have such loving parents. Caryn and Tracy - your timeless efforts and support made Russ proud to be an Olsen. And he knows now more than ever your undying love."
