A down to earth, no nonsense guy. I remember his organizing trips for our boy scout troop to a behind the scene tour of Rikers and LaGuardia airport.
It is a big loss.
Best wishes to the family in this terrible time.
I am beyond thankful for the few years i got to know and work with Steve. He was such a warm, kind, funny, and thoughtful person and i will miss him very much. My heart goes out to Janet and the family, words can not express how sorry I am for your loss. Please know that i am thinking of all of you and sending love and prayers.
I am so very sorry and my sincere condolences to the Russell family. I worked with Steve at the Port Authority Police. Always a smile on his face, quick to help, and an amazing knowledge of what needed to be done. Steve was a gift to us all, and an example of how we all should live. I know we are better people because of our experiences with him. Prayers of the Russell family during this most difficult time.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
My condolences to Steve's Family, he was a "Good Soldier", may he rest in peace.
I only knew Steve a short time, but I was graced by his presence on an Honor Flight just two weeks ago. We had the chance to chat over a frozen ice while waiting for everyone to return to the bus in Washington DC. I knew right away he was a good man. My deepest condolences to his family. The tribute video shows that he lived a good life. I hope you find solace in the memories. Godspeed, Steve. I am humbled to have known you.
Dear Russell Family,
As a young member of Nesconset Fire Department, I looked up to Steve. Great, kind person.
He will be missed by many
Peace to you

Great memories!!!!! My condolences to the Russell family
Steve and I worked together for most of my career, we enjoyed a friendly Ranger/islander rivalry and a friendship long into our retirement.
Rest In Peace brother
My sincere condolences to the Russell Family. I worked with Steve at JFK airport for many years. I can say that I have never met such a wonderful person as Steve. He was always a shining star and brought joy to the office when he was there. Steve was always to first to step up to offer his help or do work outside his usual remit. He was the most caring, giving individual. Sadly, taken away way too soon from those who love him. I feel blessed to have known Steve.
My deepest condolences to the Russell family. I worked with Steve at MacArthur airport, he was a dear friend of mine. I used to call him my “work dad.” He always put a smile on everyone’s face and you could never have a bad day when we was around. The biggest hero I have ever met with the kindest heart who truly impacted so many lives. He shared so many of his stories with me and I will be forever grateful to have known him. I will miss you my “GIF” buddy. Rest easy!
I really enjoyed working with Steve @Satellite garage. My sincere condolences to his family. He was taken too soon but I know he lived life to the fullest and that gives me some comfort.
Brian, are sincere condolences to you and your family. You are all in our hearts and we are sending much love.
Gone to soon. Steve was a great guy.
Thanks for the experience and laughter my old Truck 7 brother. Eternal Rest In Peace Amen
Our deepest condolences. Steve was an amazing man. I will never forget all his kindness
May he Rest In Peace knowing he left us all a lil bit better.
Janet, my dear, dear friend. Our hearts are with you and your whole family. Steve will be by your sides always. Love you.
Janet my deepest condolences for you and your family’s loss.

Thinking of you and your family, Lauren.
To say this is unfair is the understatement of the century. Steve was a kind, caring, helpful and wonderful person. We need more people like him in this world. My deepest condolences to the entire family. I love you all and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers every single day.
