Russ was a good friend and co-worker. A very kind, approachable, and giving person. When I asked Russ for help he would always listen and provide guidance, coaching, and support. On my trips to Collierville for work, I enjoyed going to lunch with Russ just talking and catching up.  I will miss him very much.

My thoughts and prayers are with Russ and his family. Rest in peace my friend and God bless.

To Barbara and Susan, and the rest of the Lemaster family, I pray for comfort and peace for you guy's in the days and months ahead. Of course it's been so many years since I saw Russ, but one of my fondest memories as a child was when you guys lived in Bartlett in the mid 70s, our families would get together at y'alls home often, and us kids; Susan,  Russ, me, my brother Brian, and my sister Tonja would play and swim all day, and then visit into the night where we would end up cooking dinner together on the grill and play some more until it got late, and it was time to go home. Our two families spent some great times together. I know John, Russ, and Ashley are having a great time  rejoicing together in heaven. God bless you all. 

Pam,

I was so saddened to hear that Russ had passed.  My heart goes out to you and your family!  I so enjoyed getting to know Russ over the years.  He was a kind and intelligent man and it was always so interesting to talk with him.

May God watch over you and comfort you.  You’re in our thoughts and prayers.

Love you,

Barb and Steve Horning


Not sure where to begin. Russ is more than a co-worker, he is a good friend. Always makes everyone around him laugh. Very good coach, approachable and kind. I always enjoyed the conversation with Russ professionally and personally. When needed he was always there to listen and guide me. As my ancestors always used to say God always takes good people (you love) away from you. I am still not able to digest the loss. We will always keep him in our thoughts and prayers.

I worked with Russ for many years.  He was my go to guy when i couldn't figure out a communication issue.  When i lived in Memphis i could always go over to his desk and ask him anything and he would help me out.  Since moving back to Texas, he was a phone call away.  He was always nice guy and very knowledgeable and i will miss him.

I knew Russ from the Tri-State Woodcrafters club.  He served on the Board of Directors with me for several years.  Russ was energetic and a kind man.  He helped the club in many ways.  I enjoyed our trip to St. Louis for the Wood show this past January.   He was a good friend and companion.  Our club will miss him very much and I will too.  May he rest in peace with the Good Lord.

I worked with Russ for almost 10 years since starting my career at FedEx - He was a valuable asset and I can't tell you how much I will miss him!

Worked with Russ for many years when we first started Enterprise Messaging at FedEx.   Russ was always so helpful and knowledgeable on so many things.  He was an amazingly hard worker even though he was having health issues even then.   We will sorely miss Russ and FedEx will be diminished by his passing.   

Our sincere condolences and appreciation for all he did while he was with us.
