Dear El Dorado Springs and surrounding communities, we, the family of Russ Hayes, would like to thank everyone for all of their love and support through this very difficult time in our lives. The love and compassion form you all, (family, friend, Fire, Police, EMS and strangers), has definitely helped us get through this difficult time. We would like to thank those of you who took this opportunity to donate to a cause so dear to Russ and our local Volunteer Fire Department, the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Our family as a whole, sends the biggest thank you to all.

Love, The Hayes family
