Russell Leonard Peltier
October 10,1958-April 1,2007
My beloved son Russ was called "home" on April 1, 2007. He died quietly in his chair with his dog "Shiner"
by his side. I will miss you more than words can say but I am comforted by the thougjht that we will meet again.
I love you Russ.
My beloved son Russ, I love you so
you're gone from me now
but I want you to know
I'll think of you forever
when the winds blow
when the stars come out at night
when the sun shines so bright
you were such a sweet boy and a fine man
your life was a struggle and now it's over
take care my son and be at peace
death is but a sweet release.
With all my love, Mom

My dearest Russ as I go through the pictures I choke back the tears as I remember those long ago years.
I still can't believe your're gone from me now. The tears have subsided but the pain lingers still. I know that
your mission here on Earth has ended, but we shall meet again in a far better place where once again I can kiss your dear
sweet face. Come and visit me often and I'll be with you when my work here is done.
Your Loving Mother (c) 2007
