Russell!Oh My! Countless memories of our days as students at Clinton High School come to mind. Russell was "EVERYTHING"!A brother,a friend,a confident(I still have all the letters we passed to each other from Ms.Adair's class)and my cousin. Russell was the guy we all wanted to sit beside on "test-day" so we could copy off of his paper! Yes,Russell was that dude!Effortless intelligence.He could have easily done worked for NASA, but what Russell wanted was a family of his own and I'm so grateful he experienced that.I so enjoyed seeing him whenever I would visit. His smile made me smile.His laugh made me laugh.You're an ancestor now Russell!I pray we meet on those celestial shores one day.

We only have loving and joyful memories of Russell. From being the one to count on to be in the stands of your football games shouting over the crowd and laughing at every hit you landed, to him jovially dancing and singing with the children without a care in the world, Russell was a good man. And he was a blessing to everyone around him. His main language was laughter! We will always hear that chuckle in remembrance of him. We thank the Lord for sharing him with us. Rest in Prosperity, until we meet again.... Love from Justin "JB", Marissa, Aamira, Gabrielle, Melody, Joy, Jada and Justin Jr.
