I had the pleasure of taking care of him when he lived at Meadowlands. I would have him listen to Three Dog Night when I would assist him in getting dressed and I always “danced” with him to Joy to the World! He hated that song...or so he told me. But he always smiled when we “danced.” I’m sorry for your loss he was amazing man!

Obituary
Russell Marvin Martin, 72, of Hill City, MN, formerly of Bemidji, MN died Saturday October 6, 2018 at St. Mary’s Hospital in Duluth.
Memorial services will be held at 11:00 am Thursday, October 18, 2018 at Cease Family Funeral Home in Bemidji, MN. Visitation will be one hour before the service. Interment will be at the Fort Snelling National Cemetery in Minneapolis.
Russ was born February 26, 1946 in White Earth, MN the son of John and Shirley (Broker) Martin. He was raised and educated in Minneapolis with his sister by their aunt Ignatia Broker and graduated from Minneapolis North High School where he played touch football with his buddies when the field was free. He served our country in U.S. Marines during the Vietnam war from 1967 to 1969 and made it home safely. He worked as a lineman in the suburbs and then as an orderly at Hennepin County General.
Due to unforeseen events, he moved to his sister’s, along with his aunt and grandmother to her house in Bemidji in the mid 1980’s. He moved to his own place after the passing of his aunt. Her last request was for his sister to watch over him.
Russ had a way with big words and would throw them out there every now and then. He had a great sense of humor. He loved watching his “soapies”, football and other sports. He filled in as a babysitter to his sis’s granddaughter on occasion. Russ also loved his beer and would celebrate on his only payday once a month. Russ’s last move was to an assisted living place and remained there until he passed away due to health concerns.
He is survived by his sister Deborah Sargent of Bemidji,
brother Darrell Martin of Mounds View, MN
He was preceded in death by his parents, 4 brothers Rodney, Ronald, Everette, John, Jr., 2 sisters Arlene and Martha.

| Report: Chappy's Golden Shores Resident Beaten Before he Died |
|
|
Updated: September 25, 2019 06:57 PM
Theresa L. Olson, of Hill City, faced an Aitkin County judge Wednesday morning on 25 criminal charges stemming from her operation of a now-closed assisted living center, Chappy’s Golden Shores.
The Minnesota Attorney General’s Office charged Olson with more than two dozen offenses Tuesday, including manslaughter in the second-degree, criminal neglect of a vulnerable adult and theft.
“We are reviewing the charges and awaiting receipt of the State’s evidence,” said Jason Steck, a defense attorney. “Ms. Olson maintains her innocence and looks forward to her vindication in court.”
Court documents list the victim in the manslaughter charge only by the initials, R.M., who died in October 2018.
5 EYEWITNESS NEWS spoke with Darrell Martin, who identified the victim listed in the criminal charges as his late brother, Russell Martin, a 72-year-old Vietnam Veteran Marine.
Prosecutors said Martin died last fall from complications from an infection, leading them to file a manslaughter charge against Olson for “not providing R.M. with proper care …”
"Satisfaction has started to set in,” Martin said about the charges. “They are going to be held accountable for what happened to my brother."
Russell Martin was born in White Earth, graduated from Minneapolis North High School before joining the U.S. Marines during the Vietnam war from 1967 to 1969.
Steven Nelson, 58, also received care at Chappy's before his death in October 2018.
Prosecutors charged Olson with two counts of criminal neglect of a vulnerable adult regarding Nelson’s care, records show.
"I'm overwhelmed, I'm saddened for all the victims and the families that are going through a hard time," said Nelson’s sister, Connie Billmeier.
Billmeimer, of Champlin, filed a civil lawsuit against Chappy’s after her brother’s death.

Attorney Suzanne Scheller represents Nelson's family in a civil suit against Chappy's, but said the depth of the Attorney General’s Office criminal investigation is unheard of in elder cases.
"In this world of elder abuse and neglect, and abuse and neglect of those who those who have disabilities, it's rare to find something of this magnitude that is investigated thoroughly," Scheller said.
Scheller said the AG’s work of reviewing more than 1 million documents and the time spent on the case provides smaller jurisdictions with a new resource to help with complex elder investigations.
"It's massive, I'd say historic, I'd say sweeping, and necessary," said Scheller.
Olson’s bond was set at at least $100,000, and she’s scheduled to be back in court Nov. 18 in Aitkin County.

SEMPER FI
EULOGY FOR A VETERAN
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there I do not sleep,
I am the thousand winds that Blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain,
When you waken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
Of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night,
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.
