He later started his own drapery business, and promoted himself as “Casey The Blind Man.” Russell was a keen golfer and a regular on the courses in Prince Albert and Waskesiu, and he took up alpine skiing in his fifties. He loved highway travel, especially in the mountains of western Canada, and had a succession of motorhomes. He was ever a chauffeur for his parents who did not drive. He enjoyed the company of extended family from California to Ontario to Emma Lake.
