I was very saddened to hear of the passing of Emily Russell. I had the good fortune of golfing with her for a few years at the CRYCC. She was just the most caring and kind woman. She was very encouraging to those of us who had just taken up the game of golf. She always had a great big smile on her face and would make you feel better just seeing her. My condolences go out to her husband and family. Everyone who knew her will feel the loss of her passing.

So saddened to learn the passing of Ms. Emily. Played golf with her at Prospect Bay in some tournaments. She was truly a lady and glad to see me so we could chat. One day I was visiting my Hospice Patient at Heron Point and she was working in the gift shop. It was so good to see her. I extend my deepest sympathy and prayers to Mr. Bill and her family. May God be by your side each day during this diffuclt time. God Bless. RIP Ms. Emily. You will be missed by many. Lynda Palmatary, Centreville.
