I was sitting here thinking of Suzie.  I'm in Seagoville, Tx.  Our little ones went to school together.  I found her on Facebook and am saddened to hear of Russell's passing.  I will keep Suzie and her family in my prayers.  I remember Russell as a kind man who loved his family.

Today (5/8/19), I learned that brother Carnley passed from this life and into eternity. 

I attended the Browntrail School of Preaching with him (1998-1999). He graduated 6 months before me. I remember his hard work and study habits. He had a unique humor that made us all laugh many times.

I had heard of his suffering. I lost my mom a few weeks ago of similar ailments. I’m saddened for his dear family, local brethren  and friends. May God give them strength to continue in the faith. 

As faithful Christians pass on, I always reflect on what they must be experiencing now. His faith has become sight. Thank you Lord for dying for us and making Heaven possible for anyone and everyone who chooses to seek the face of God (Psalm 105:4).

Prayers for those that remain.

RUSSELL WAS A GREAT GOSPEL PREACHER WHO HAD A VAST KNOWLEDGE OF THE SCRIPTURES AND QUOTED THEM REGULARILY AS MINISTER OF IDER CHURCH OF CHRIST NEAR HENAGAR ALABAMA. HE WAS ALSO A GOOD CRAFTSMAN OF BUILDING AND WOODWORKING. HE BUILT A GARAGE FOR US ALONG WITH DERRICK AND IT STANDS AS A REMINDER OF SOME GOOD DAYS TOGETHER. WINNIE AND I WILL ALWAYS CHERISH THE MEMORIES SHARED WITH THE WHOLE FAMILY.  THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO OUR CHURCH AND TO OUR FAMILY PERSONALLY.  I ALREADY MISS YOU AND BELIEVE GOD HAS A GREATER NEED FOR RUSSELL AND NOW HE CAN REST IN  PEACE FREE FROM SUFFERING. MAY GOD'S BLESSINGS REST WITH YOU UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.   JIM AND WINNIE FRANKLIN

So very sorry to hear this. Russell was a wonderful Christian man.  My parents, HB and Lavada Redmon, thought very highly of him and his family. Praying for the family during these trying times. 
In Christian Love,

Russell will be dearly missed!!! I remember meeting him through the Salene Church of Christ in Michigan. An amazing preacher who captivated my mind..my heart..and my soul. I was a young 20 year old who had been raised Lutheran but was lost in my ways and he brought me back to God in Godspeed. Rather then answering my many questions of faith..he directed me to the Bible and where to go and I spiritually grew from there. When I left Michigan in 2009 to Virginia..I immediately grasped to Colonial Heights Church of Christ and have continued my journey since. I will never ever forget Russel till my dieing day. I may not have have been as close to him as many of his friends and family but to me he has always held a special place in my heart. May you walk in peace now with the Lord Russ.  And for Suzie and the family my prayers and heart is with you. Love you all so much!!!
