Russ was an example of unconditional love, never-ending service, generosity, and faithfulness. He showed unconditional love to his family, friends, and especially his grandchildren. Russ never met a stranger and was willing to help out anyone in need. He dedicated the last years of his life to his grandchildren. Russ did the dishes, laundry, and cleaning, drove the kids to school and activities, read the same book many times, played endless games, and always gave hugs and encouragement. He embodied 1 Corinthians 13. “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking.” Those left to honor Russ’ memory are his daughter, Rhonda; son, Randall and wife Joanna; grandsons: Isaiah and Elijah; granddaughter, Sarah; brothers: Micheal and Philip; sister, Linda; siblings and spouses; as well as many nieces, nephews, grandnieces, grandnephews, and those whose lives he touched. Preceding Russ in death is his wife, Rosemarie DePass Scott; daughter, Robyn; and parents: Claude and Alice Scott. Russ’ tribute was written in his honor by his family.
