Reviewing the Internet, I came across another individual that I have known for over 45 years that has died recently, leaving family and friends and now in the presence of the Almighty God. I have known Lee Russell Pruitt for these years although not always been able to be around him totally. When in his presence and around him, Russell was always true and loyal to me as a friend and sometimes I was referred to him as a "big brother." I miss my "little brother" always and wish sincere condolences to his family, brothers and sister.
Very sorry for your loss Roaeann, remember a lot of fun times at Ed's Supply at 9th and Izard with me, my dad and Russ and all those guys. It sure was nice to be young and care free, now I'm that old guy now. He was proud as a peacock when he started dating you. You guys had 29 years together , cherish the memories. Russ was a good guy. God bless you and all your family.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I know your heart is breaking. Prayers for comfort and much love sent to you. Love you my sweet friend.

To all of Russell's family but particularly to Lee, Bobby and Eric. So saddened to hear of the loss of our mutual namesake Russell.
There's no better compliment in my book than for a man to be remembered as a "good guy". And he was such a good guy and he had no pretense.
My heartfelt condolences to all. Bless you!
Russ

My sincerist condolences to RoseAnn, Nicholas, and Bianca. What an absolute shock!! Russ was always like an older brother to me. Him and RoseAnn were always one of the constants in my crazy life. I had no family here, and they became that for me. I remember when they were dating when we were all SO much younger, then the most fun wedding that you can imagine. My heart hurts for those he left behind. RIP Russ.
I am so sorry to hear this. I will be praying for you and your daughter
