I know we cant live forever but I never thought this would happen so fast, Russ. Since our Dad died when I was just 17, you became a father figure along with being my big brother. You were always there for me, listening to problems and always trying to answer my questions. We could talk on the phone for hours.  I remember the night you and I went out as my last hurrah before I got married. We had a blast and I will ALWAYS treasure that night forever. We  had so many laughs.  I remember after we had to go home, and one too many drinks, we got to your house and you decided you wanted to whistle. Why you wanted to whistle is beyond me but it was hysterical. I kept telling you to be quiet, Sally and Mike and Nicky were sleeping and you were going to wake them up. It didnt matter, you wanted to whistle and you did it. What a funny, beautiful memory.  Just recently you, me,  Sally and Ed sat in your eating area and watched the deer go through your yard. How beautiful it was. I am so glad the EAGLES won the Super Bowl!  I doubt there was a more dedicated fan than you. Im really going to miss you Russ as I know everyone else is. Keep playing your drums in heaven!  I love you and always will. Your baby sister, Steph
