Fund in Memory of Russell Stevens
Donation protected
If you're here, it's because you knew and loved Russell Stevens.
Russ lived most of his life in Stratham and was a graduate of Exeter High School and the University of New Hampshire. He worked for the Stratham Highway Department for 28 years, and often plowed folks out of their driveways during his off hours (and accepted cups of hot cocoa as payment--shhhh). Russ lived in Portsmouth from 1985 till 2000 when he moved back to Stratham, as Stratham was in his heart.
Also in his heart were his friends he met at the Bratskellar restaurant, among other venues. He was quick with a joke, and if you laughed, you were one of his kind of people. Something that made Russ laugh, was the morning radio show on WHEB 100.3 fm. He loved playing a small role, bringing treats into the station, or calling in with funny “intelligence” reports.
Russ’s whole life centered around his son Scott, in fact he recently intrigued many of his Facebook friends, by recording how he showed up at least two hours early to Scott’s Exeter High School graduation. He was the only only one there at that hour, but his Facebook friends were there in spirit.
As son Scott leaves home to attend McGill University in Montreal, may he always know how proud Russ was of his him, and although Russell was a joker, this is no joke.
This account, set up in Russell's memory, is to raise funds for his son's education. Every little bit, and good wish, will not go unnoticed.
