Russ retired from education in 2013 from Armstrong School District. In retirement, he enjoyed assorted part time jobs, all of which involved driving. Most recently, he enjoyed driving for the Butler Auto Auction and Star Limousine Service.
Russell is preceded in death by his parents, brother Robert (Jean) Carson and sister Jacqueline (Charles) Pensyl. He is survived by his wife Wendy, sister Diane (Brian) Beegle, brothers Richard (Elizabeth) and Rodney (Barbara) and several nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews.
Russ' ashes will be spread in the Gulf of Mexico in a private ceremony near his beloved Marco Island, Florida. Friends and family will be welcomed to celebrate his memory on Monday, March 11 from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the Economy Boro Social Hall, 2856 Conway Wallrose Road, Baden PA 15005.
