It is with deep regret and sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Russell. With his family by his side, Russ had succumbed to his hard fought battle with cancer on October 10, 2021 at St. Boniface Hospital.
Russ will sadly be missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew him. Left to cherish his memories are his wife Sandra of 33 years; his children Brittanie, Joshua, Ceilina (Brett) and Angeleen; his grandson Carter and soon to be grandson Easton; his mother Carole, brother Jesse (Simone) and sister Dawn (Dave); all his loving sister-in-laws, brother-in-laws, nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews. He was predeceased by his 2 Dads, Buster and John.
He was a dedicated and loving son, husband, father and Papa. He will always be remembered for his unique sense of humor and personality. He had a great love of movies and music and was often found with a guitar in his hands – usually at inopportune times.
A private family service will be held at 2:00pm on Monday, October 18, 2021. You are invited to join us virtually by accessing the Join Livestream link on Russ’s obituary at www.greenacresfuneralhome.com.
The family would like to send a special thank you to all the staff at Cancer Care Manitoba and the WRHA Palliative Care Program for all the loving care they had provided for Russ and his family.
In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made in Russ’s name to Cancer Care Manitoba.
