Jean was a big part of our family. When he was born my mom, his Aunt Fannie used to baby sit him. She baby sat with him so much he thought she was his mother. She loved Jean and always has him in her thoughts. He always kept her in his thoughts and visited her. He will be missed. RIH
My sincere condolences from the Ross and Washington family.
Oscar & I spent a lot of time together at both HFHS CAM & on the many bus trips to Battle Creek.
His spirit was always high and he was always a pleasure to know and to be in his company.
May God Bless Him and his Family.

To the Family of Deacon Russell, I was so deeply saddened to have heard of the passing of your Beloved Husband, Father and Friend. I always enjoyed when the Men Choir would come to Jackson and sing. Now Deacon Russell,
has fought a good fight, and his soul has been set free from the pain and troubles of this world. As you gather together not to say "Good-bye", but to rejoice and celebrate a life well lived, know that Deacon Russell is Resting in Paradise with Jesus. May the Lord give you strength during this time. Until you all shall meet again in Glory, hold on to those Precious Memories how they will linger in your Hearts forever.
Blessings and Prayers for each of you.
Our hearts are with you today. We pray that you find comfort in knowing that others feel your pain in the loss of your husband, father, uncle, cousin, and friend. He was a great supporter of the Retirees of SMART. We will surely miss him. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.
With Love, Blessing and Prayers Always,
Charlene Fane
