Very sorry for your loss. I first met Rusty when I worked at Lincoln Lanes back in the seventies. He was one of the people that I talked to about becoming a police officer. He steered me to CF and I was forever grateful to him for that. My prayers go out to his family and he will be missed all that knew him.

Dear Estelle, Richard, Claudette & Ronald,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time of great sorrow at the loss or your husband and dad. We always say children are a gift from God and they are but some of us are so fortunate to also have the gift of a wonderful spouse and father, which Rusty surely was to his family.
My early memories of Rusty was when he first became a motorcycle cop and I was afraid of him but it was really respect for him and his position. I did tell him that changed when I meet him again here at Berkeley Commons that I still had respect but the fear was gone.
Arthur already misses his card games with Rusty, Richard and Dale but Rusty is in a better place now and I'm sure there are card players in heaven.
We will keep you all close to our hearts and pray for you and Rusty.
