Russell Carter was born on March 31, 1918 in Kearney, Nebraska. He joined our family by marriage to my maternal grandmother Wanda Swenson in 1976. They were married for 18 years until his death by stroke on November 26, 1994. He was fun to be with. We would cause mischief such as eating donuts and he was comic always had jokes to tell. One of his favorite jokes where does the smoke go on an electric train. The answer is there is no smoke on an electric train.
