We hadn't had much time together in the past few years, but I will forever remember the times we had and the bonds that we made. You gave me my sense of humor and I will always miss us picking on each other (which was how we had always communicated). I love and miss you, my Uncle Rusty!

All of you have touched my heart and it is so true that he was an amazing man. He had a heart of gold and he believed in marriage and family. He was a tenderhearted man, that felt my pain when I was hurting. He loved his family, his wife and his kids more than anything in the world. I will miss his awnriness and will treasure my memories with my brother!

I will miss playing darts, cards, and dominoes with him.
I will miss watching movies with him.
I will miss listening to stories from his life.
I will miss sharing morning coffee with him.
I will miss having popcorn with him.
I will miss the conversations we had.
I will miss hanging out with him.
I will miss my Papa.
