Furthermore, Russo applauded Ross's contributions to the business and had major praise for him, not only as a veteran of the industry, but as an individual, too.
"He's a man's man. A straight shooter. If he had something to say he said it TO YOU. To be in the position of power that he was in--and NOT play politics-- tells you all about his character. I love you, JR, and I will never forget the years that I worked with you. You are one of a kind and there will never be another. God Bless You, Sir."
