Emma Jean Robinson Russell is an extraordinary woman and a true humanitarian. Throughout her life she has devoted countless hours and given unselfishly of her time to numerous civic, religious, and service organizations. Her thoughtfulness, generosity, and affection have touched many lives.
Mrs. Russell’s loving devotion to her family, relatives and friends transcends all her leadership and service to the community. She is a gracious and kind person -- a Christian in every sense of the word. Her every gesture comes from the heart. As dear family friends we feel it only fitting that Emma Jean Robinson Russell be recognized by the Plaza of Heroines at Iowa State University. Her alma mater can take pride in having Mrs. Russell as one of its most outstanding alumni.
