    My heart is saddened by your passing, but at the same time, memories fill my life with smiles. Thanks for being a part of my life when needed the most. Your laughs, astringent quips, smiles, and always being there to help others will be well remembered, not to mention your skills as an operator.

    Rusty liked to pretend he was rough, crusty and grumpy. He was not- but he didn’t want people to know that. But you didn’t have to know him for very long before the real Rusty started to show thru and-despite his best efforts- you learned how caring, considerate and loving he really was. And you could tell when he was arriving- you could hear him before you would see him. I appreciated him as a great friend. Gonna miss you Moe!
