Rusty was a neighbor and a friend growing up together near Lyon Park in Arlington. I remember sledding down hill on 2nd rd N. between Filmore and Edgewood with him. He was a leader in the W&L class of 54, and I remember being on the track team with him. He was our hurdler and a very good one. Rest in Peace, Rusty.
