Besides being a factory worker a great portion of his life, some of
the time was spent with the advertising department of a major food
change in the Michigan area. Russell was also a free-lance
cartoonist. He did jobs for the Lake Co. Mi. Tourist Asso.; several
taverns, individuals, his kids and grand kids. He was even offered a
job at Disney Studios once when he was younger, but his mother being
in poor health and she not wanting to move to California, asked him
not to go.
He loved trout fishing and his cabin in the woods north of Baldwin,
Mi. where he spent the last years of his life. His ashes are buried
on this land so that he might spend all of eternity in the place he
loved most.
