Russ was a man of incredible integrity! Always willing to assist co-workers at Dunbar Armored and encourage everyone to always do things 'the right way - everyday.' For Russ, listening to his co-workers, guiding his many industry admirers and treating everyone with genuine respect was how he conducted every interaction. No doubt Russ will be missed and certainly never forgotten -as he was a true leader!
Very respectfully,
Patrick Gibbons
(former VP-Gov't & Industry - Dunbar Armored)
