And now, as he stood at the platform, I knew his heart   6   be racing.

Here he was at twenty-nine, being honored for ten years of service as a volunteer    8  . Russ was   9   for organizing clothing for the homeless, teaching preschool children about fire safety, and for playing Santa Claus for very sick children by driving up in a fire truck.      Russ thanked his parents for providing him with dignity and for teaching him about morals.
