Russell retired from The United States Navy after nearly 20 years of service. He then went on to work at The United States Postal Service, where he also retired after 20 years. He enjoyed working outdoors and tinkering on his vehicles. However, his favorite thing to do was spending time with his grandchildren.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Luther and Lessie Boyette; a brother; and three sisters.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Make-A-Wish Foundation in Russell’s memory.
