He is survived by his son, Colton Russell, of the home, son Cody Russell, of Jonesboro, son Chad Russell and wife Shannon and grandchildren Shelby and Blair of Marianna, son Kurt Russell and wife Nickie and grandchildren Austin and Maddie Claire of Marianna, and brother Danny Russell and wife Nancy of Oak Forest.
