Rusty, The world is an incredibly sadder place without you in it 💔. And I am honored and proud to have been able to call you my big, big, big brother for the last 43+ years. I will always be grateful for those last four weeks we had spent together, I will cherish them and all the memories we had made over the years, I miss you, Myriam misses you, Nicolas misses you and Leonardo misses you, they have fond memories of the laughter you brought to their hearts and you always had time for my boys and played with them, you were the fun uncle, the best uncle ❤️. I promise to you Russell, I will try to keep smiling and be the big kid for my boys from you. I will love and hold you in my heart forever. Love your baby brother, your Spunky ❤️

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
