Rusty Clair Obituary
Born on November 5, 1946, in St. Louis, Missouri, to Fern Marie Stahl, Rusty proudly served as a United States Marine during the Vietnam War-a commitment that shaped his character and values throughout his life. He went on to build a successful career as a sales representative, taking great pride in both his work and the lasting relationships he formed along the way.
Rusty was married twice and was the proud father of three children, of whom he was so proud of all of their accomplishments.
He is survived by his children, Kellee (Tricia), Lauren (Chris), and Emilee; his grandchildren, Johanna, Addie, Lilly, and Cameron; and his brother, Jimmy (Brenda) as well as many nephews and nieces. He was preceded in death by his mother, Fern; his sister, Kathy; and his brother, Timmy.
A celebration of Rusty's life will be held on Saturday, June 7, 2025, from 2:00-5:00 p.m. at Papa's on the Lake in Montgomery, Texas. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to a veterans' organization in Rusty's honor.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
