Condolences for Russell Reynolds
From: Carleen Funke I was married to Russ's cousin Kelly for nine years. I have a few memories.. The one I remembered most about him was when he was in high school he played the king in "the king and I", which he shaved his head for... Kelly told me after Russ played that part most of his hair never grew back. He was a good man, I considered him a friend. God with good my friend.
