Verden was my great Aunt Geraldine's brother-in-law. She was married to Richard in 1943. I'm sad that I've never met that part of the family and pray for comfort for your loss.
I take solace in knowing that my beloved brother Dennis is now with Rusy! He knew him as well and am sure he even played in a band with him at one time in his life. I'm sure they are both up there just "jamming" away until we join them in celebration! BLESSINGS and PEACE to the entire family. Love and Prayers
Dear Aunt Ella, Sally and family, You know how much we loved Uncle Rusty and we will miss him, and playing cards with him. Hope you all find comfort in the fact that he is at peace now. You will one day meet again, but he'll always be with you until then. God Bless you all and help you through this trying time. Love Mary and Dicky
MaMay, My heart is with you. I hope you and your family stay strong and will work through the pain. You are a strong woman Mamay, so please keep the faith. We will see you in June. Love you Michele Wheeler
I am so sorry for your loss. I remember going to Rusty and Ella's house as a child. My ma Shirley Marshall would take my brother and I. We would eat Ella's delicious homemade apple pie, while the ladies chatted and Rusty took Teddy and I into his shop. He designed and fashioned belts for both my brother and I with our names on them. To this day, I still have mine. Rusty was such a special person. I really loved him. He was like a granpa to me. As the years went on, our family was linked to theirs more and more. Shawna began babysitting for my brother and I and I became great friends with his great-nephew Scott. Rusty may be gone from this earth but he is alive in our thoughts and our hearts. He was a great man who will NEVER be forgotten. I will miss him dearly. I send my love and wishes to you all and please take solace in knowing that your entire family is in my heart, my thoughts, and my prayers. I love ya Rusty!
Dear Ella,Sally,Helen and Family. Please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. Our prayers have been with you throughout and we will continue to remember Rusty in our prayers.
