I met Mr. Russell last year when fitting him with hearing aids in his home, and there were several things that amazed me. He was sweet and gentle and smiling even when in pain, and when we gave him the phone to test drive his new hearing devices, he was remarkably well versed in the latest baseball games!! Although I did not know him very well, I must say that the character of his sons Mike and Andy, must reflect on what an excellent father and role model John must have been. They researched the best, most comfortable options for their father and did not hesitate to invest in John's quality of life even at an advanced age. They also took the time to write New Years cards and thank you letters to me for my medical care. It takes a certain kind of Dad to raise sons this loyal and grateful. It has been my pleasure getting to know your family and I was thrilled to learn about how much the hearing care enhanced your final year of life. Rest in Peace Mr. Russell... you did a great job in this world!
