Russ served as an officer in the United States Navy and spent his professional career as a pharmaceutical representative for Lederle Laboratories.

Russ was an active and passionate member of Christ Lutheran Church for over fifty years. Russ enjoyed traveling the world through home exchanges and was able to visit Australia, Scotland, Norway, Germany, England, to list just a few.
