Raymond Russell, who worked for four decades in Canada’s printing industry, passed away at the age of 72 after a battle with Lou Gehrig’s Disease (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosi).
Based in what is now the Greater Toronto Area, Russell began his career with the Salvation Army Printing Department before moving to York Litho to undertake an apprenticeship in lithography. He became a journeymen lithographic film stripper.
In 1972, Russell took on a sales position with McCutcheon Graphics, which was later purchased by Fuji Graphic Systems. He spent 32 years with this company in sales, management and national technical marketing positions. Russell had been retired for a number of years before his passing.
Outside of the office, Russell is remembered for his passion for music, fishing, hockey, and baseball.
