I could have missed it, but I don't believe that the passing of Russell Morash (1936-2024) was noted here at SMC. My apologies if this is a repeat. Many of us have been fans and even "mentored" by Norm Abram and the New Yankee Workshop as well as have appreciated This Old House and other programs that Russell was responsible for. The physical NYW is actually in the backyard of his and Marian's home. For awhile now, he's been bringing the NYW library to YouTube including creating new content that explores many aspects of the show and workshop. I believe this one might be the last he appeared in and shows the upstairs office and a chestnut desk that Norm built long ago. This was sad news to learn for sure.
(EDIT...there was a thread about this posted in OT just a few minutes before I posted here)
