Sweet Rusty…you’ll definitely be missed…especially by the LMHS Class of ’65. And don’t worry, we’ll take good care of Kathy for you! Always in our hearts!

Kathi and family,
My condolences to all for Rusty’s passing. He was my “across-the-street” neighbor from 5th grade on. He was always a sweet, easy-going, kind guy. I know he will be missed by his loved ones.
I am so sorry I am unable to attend his funeral services but will hold all of you in my prayers.

Sorry to hear about the passing of “Mighty Russ”, he was a good man and if you ever needed to be cheered up Rusty could always make you laugh. I worked with Rusty for many years.
