I received a card today and it was beautiful!!!! Enclosed in the card was a letter to me, with memories of my brother. I want to share this with you. My brother Russell touched many lives.
"OK Marilyn, I have a-searched huundreds of poems, sympathy verses and such o express my feelings for Russell's transition into heaven. The truth is, I haven't experienced the loss of a sister or brother, yet I always thought all of us woulod live forever and supposed we'd all go at once."
"I know of times when Russell "influenced" my life. I would not trade any of them differently. Ok so we got in a bit of trouble, HA! Who hasn't when we were growing up? that is what makes us what we will become later in life. You either improve or become someone nobody respects. He overcame visus many men did not have the strength of.
:I have found memories, one summer of when Russell, Gary Efflin, I and others drove our motorcycles to somewherfe in New Mexico to their girlfriend, Bobby Joe, Mary Joe or something, but she had huge tits! Ahhh, Billy Jean!!! I learned about tunneling behind semi's-catching a free ride, bugs in your teeth and wind burn.
Even getting caught stealing motorcycles was a good memory. Not that Russell had anything to do with it...Also, remeber Mike Medlock sleeping over and introduced me to "sniffing gas" I was so toasted. Still cannot stand the smell today of gasoline. Well, you might ask Gary about the motorcycles.....
From this, Russell showed me the love of motoercycles that I still have today. Their has not been a time in my life since then that I have not had one, ever! So thank you Russell!!!!! Ride on my friend--- Love Kit
I do remember Kit having a motorcycle i think it was a yamaha...not sure of color but did share a picture of one...Russell influenced a lot of people...good and some bad...but never regretted a day in his life.
