Cindy and family-
You are in my thoughts and prayers. We just crossed paths recently and you shared Russell’s illness. I’ll miss his warm smile and humor. I know he loved you passionately and your family. Stay in touch.
Cindy, Courtney, Brock and Chloe, so shocked and sorry to hear of Russell’s passing! He was such a jokester and even though we were only one year apart he loved to call me Aunt!! I was proud to be and to have loved each of you! Prayers and love to you all! Maribeth, Brad, Brooke n Clara and Brent, Mandi , Kenadi and Laken!
After seeing the video it’s hard to believe someone so full of life has gone so soon. I am truly sorry he was taken at such a young age. It’s obvious he loved and cared much about his family. I knew his parents when they married and first met Russell when he was 4 or 5 years old and saw him occasionally during family visits to Texas; the last time was 13 years ago. Russell was always up to something fun , smiling and happy. I know he will truly be missed by family and friends.
Our prayers go out to Cindy and the rest of the family in their time of grieving and celebration of Russel’s life.

It is with a heavy heart to say good bye to Russell. He was always a great friend and coworker at Mercury Tool. He loved to pull pranks on his fellow coworkers! To Cindy, Courtney, Brock and Chloe you can be assured he greatly loved each one of you and was a proud husband, father and grandpa! May you find comfort in your memories and strength to face each day without him. He will be greatly missed.
God bless and keep you.
