Lori, I was shocked to see you have lost Russell! I’ll always remember you and Russell as an outstanding Christian couple and family. I’m so sorry for your loss and my prayers are with you.
A man of God who will be missed.
Dear Guest family,We are so very sorry to hear this news. Only God knows “why” and sometimes it is hard for us to understand. We just have to “trust him” as he is the only one who knows “why.” We are praying for you all, and love the Guest family.

My heart is saddened to hear of our loss of Russell yet happy to know that he is with our Lord and Savior. My mind is filled with many good memories of times spent with Russell as part of the youth of South Union Baptist Church. I remember him as being kind and caring…always smiling and laughing….a big brother to me. My thoughts and prayers are with Lori and her children during this difficult time.
Our sympathy on the loss of your husband/father. May the God of comfort be with you all during this time until you meet him again in Heaven

Words cannot not express what I feel about the passing of Russell. I hope that your family will have comfort in knowing how great a guy he was and may the beautiful memories lives on. During this time find comfort in the Lord and know that Russell is at his resting place. Although gone to soon, the Lord had work for him to do. He truly will be missed. Sending my sympathy to entire family. A Classmate and friend~Cecelia Peters Ellison
Russell will be missed by all who knew him. It was a blessing knowing and working with him. God bless your family now and forever.
Lori and family, I was so very saddened to hear about of the tragic loss of Russell. I remember him fondly from high school and church, and can imagine what a wonderful husband and father he must have been. You especially will be in my thoughts and prayers now, and in the coming weeks, months and years. Hold fast to your faith, and may God bless you with special comfort and peace
We were so saddened to hear of Russell’s death & have been praying for you Lori & all your family. We have fond memories of our times with him & your sweet family while at South Union. So sorry we cannot be with you during this time but will continue to lift you & family up in prayer. So sad for you, your children & grands!
Dear Curtis, Chelsea and family:We can only imagine the sorrow your family is experiencing at this moment. But we praise the Lord with you that we do not sorrow as those who have no hope! May God give you and especially mom grace, peace and wisdom for the days ahead. Be assured of our church family’s prayers for you all. John 11:25.
Lori and family, Tony and Kenneth texted me at the same time on Thursday and then I called both and got this tragic news. I’ve know Russell since I was seven in Mrs. Riley’s third grade class at Lone Star Elementary. He was one of my best friends while growing up in East Texas. I remember Charles and Wanda being the Webelo and Cub Scout parents, spending nights at their home, their move to Jenkins, several failed hunting and fishing trips, (something always happened) and Russell being my roommate our first semester at Texas A&M. My regrets are numerous, right now I wish I had kept up with Russell more but trips to Texas are few and far between with everything going on now. Although I haven’t talked to Russell in several years I know that his faith and family were his two “touchstones.” Russell was so forthright – honest, loving, caring and I know he remains a great example and role model for his family and his community. My God bless you and keep you during this difficult time. You and your family have my whole heart. Love to all, Brian and Cissy Hass

We will always miss your family at the church,I think of you often.At a time like this we just have to lean on ou Lord and Savior to see us through.We Love you very much Rita Bridwell y
Russel was a member of my church family and a friend. Many fond memories will be with me of our days as we grew up. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and he will be missed.See you in heaven brother.
Our deepest sympathy goes out to Lori and children. I know Russell walked with The Lord each day and lived his life as his mom and dad set the example for him to model. The last time that I was able to spend with Russell was at Uncle Charles funeral. We talked about how time got by without seeing each other. I have great memories of Russell in Dangerfield at home with his mom and dad. I know he is with them now.I only wished we could have spent more time together. We love you guys.
Lori, Please accept our thoughts and concern for all of the family at this time. We recall Russell from earlier years and loved his happy disposition. What a wonderful family you have, with an equal number of boys and girls. Our wish is that your faith and memories will comfort all of you in the days ahead. Barbara and Phil Gilbert, Casey and Corys grandparents.
Priss and I just found out today. So sorry for your loss, but rejoicing in his security in Jesus. We both remember fondly the meal in your home and the time to visit. Please give Beth our regards.
Lori,Like others, I am at a loss of words hearing of Russell’s death. I am another friend that goes back many years not only as classmates and neighbors but also as a “family member” of South Union. Anyone who knew Russ knows he was the extraordinary man, son, father and grandfather. He always had that ear to ear grin. I can’t recall ever seeing him without it and always giving me a hug at church. Not only did he walk the walk but talked the talk as Mrs Wanda and Mr Charlie taught him. I know there will never be words to comfort you and the kids. You, as a strong christian woman, know there will be a day you will never be separated from your beloved Russell. He, along with his mom and dad will be there waiting. Oh, what a glorious and joyful reunion that will be!My deepest sympathy to you and all the kids.
Dear Lori and family,I am so sorry for your loss. Praying for God’s peace and comfort during this time of grief. You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.
