Earl Leslie “Rusty” Russell III of Gainesville, TX, passed away Wednesday, July 20, 2022.&nbsp; He was 78.

Born January 25, 1944, at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, Rusty was a man of 
many talents, interests, and pursuits. Most importantly, he was a loving
 husband, father, brother and uncle, and a man of faith.

Rusty was, at his core, a deeply patriotic person, the quintessential
 US Army man.&nbsp; He began his military career in middle school in the 
Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) and continued to serve in 
ROTC throughout his high school and college years.&nbsp; In September 1966, 
upon graduation from Fort Hays State University, Kansas (BA in Political
 Science), Rusty received his commission as a Second Lieutenant in the 
US Army. Soon afterwards, Rusty attended the Army Aviation Center and 
School at Fort Rucker, Alabama, where he earned his pilot wings.&nbsp; He 
served two tours in Viet Nam (1967-68 and again in 1971-72) where he 
flew reconnaissance missions and aligned artillery.&nbsp;

During these intense combat tours Rusty earned the following military honors:

Distinguished Flying Cross with 1 Oak Leaf Cluster, Bronze Star, Army
 Commendation Medal with Oak Leaf Cluster, Army Meritorious Unit 
Citation, National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal with 7 
Bronze Service Stars, Cross of Gallantry W/Silver Star (2 Awards), 
Vietnam Campaign Medal with Palm. In 1975, having attained the rank of 
Major, Rusty was honorably discharged from the US Army.

It was in 1963—on a blind date—Rusty met the one and only true love 
of his life: &nbsp;Jan. He knew the moment he saw her descending the stairs 
at Miller Scholarship Hall that she was the woman for him, and he wanted
 to build a life with her.&nbsp; Rusty and Jan were married November 19, 
1966, and shared a love of travel, family, friends, and their only 
child, Lee.

Following his military career, Rusty and Jan opened a real estate 
firm, Hallmark Homes, in Manhattan, Kansas. In 1982, the opportunity 
arose to join Edward Jones as a Financial Advisor.&nbsp; Without a backup 
plan, Rusty and Jan decided to move their family to Gainesville, Texas, 
to start a new adventure.&nbsp; Throughout his quarter-century career with 
Edward Jones, Rusty was valued as a trusted advisor, educator, discreet 
confidante, and wise mentor.

Rusty was civic minded and generous with both his time and financial 
blessings. He served his community by participating on many boards 
including the Gainesville Municipal Airport Board, the North Texas 
Medical Center Board, the First United Methodist Church Board, the State
 Bar of Texas Ethics Committee Board, and on the Longhorn Council. Rusty
 was also an active member of the Gainesville Masonic Lodge #210 and 
served as a Past Master.

A lifelong supporter of the Boy Scouts of America, Rusty earned the 
rank of Eagle Scout and later in life, the Order of the Arrow's Vigil 
Honor. Rusty served as leader of Gainesville's Troop 668 for many years,
 mentoring new generations of Scouts. He lived his life according to 
Scout Law, to be: &nbsp;Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, 
Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent.

Rusty was preceded in death by his parents, Colonel Earl L. Russell, 
Jr. USA (Ret.) and Laura Margaret E. Russell, and his brother-in-law, 
Brian Charles Klusener.

Survivors include his wife, Janice Kay “Jan” Russell of Gainesville; 
son, Earl Leslie “Lee” Russell, IV of Gainesville, Texas; brother and 
sister-in-law, Robert and Pam Russell of Manhattan, Kansas; sister and 
brother-in-law, Jane and Brad McMurray of Plant City, Florida; 
brother-in-law, John Klusener of Topeka, Kansas; sister-in-law, Laura 
Klusener of Pittsburg, Kansas; and many beloved nieces, nephews, and 
cousins.

Inurnment at the Dallas-Fort Worth National Veterans Cemetery will be held Friday, August 19, at 11:15 AM.

The memorial service with military honors is scheduled for Saturday, 
August 20, at 10:00 AM at First United Methodist Church of Gainesville. 
Reception to follow.

Judy Ann Weigel, age 80, died July 26, 2022, at The Arbors at Waldron 
Place Memory Care Assisted Living in Hutchinson, KS.&nbsp; She was born 
February 17, 1942, in Munjor, KS, to Felix and Elizabeth (Herrman) 
Schumacher.&nbsp; Everyone who knew Judy, knows she was a “social butterfly” 
and her greatest talent was her “gift of gab."&nbsp; This earned her the 
nickname of the Munjor Lilly early in life.

Judy had a passion for music she inherited from her father at an 
early age.&nbsp; During High School, she would often travel with her father on
 the weekends playing her saxophone while he played the accordion in the
 Hermanettes polka band for anniversaries and weddings all over Kansas.&nbsp;

Judy graduated from Hays High School in 1960, where she was crowned 
homecoming queen.&nbsp; While still in high school, she worked at her uncle’s
 beauty salon after school, helping wash client’s hair.&nbsp; It was there 
Judy became interested in being a Cosmetologist.&nbsp; After high school she 
attended Sidney’s Hairdressing Academy in Hutchinson, KS while living 
with her sister Alma and her family.&nbsp; Judy absolutely loved all 
children.&nbsp; Her nephews often share stories about waiting at the front 
door for Judy to get out of school so she could rescue them from the 
house for a bit as she walked them to Peter Pan for ice cream cones.&nbsp;&nbsp;

While working for another uncle at his local ice cream parlor in 
Hays, KS, Judy met the love of her life Darrell, as he chased her around
 the ice cream cabinet one day when he delivered milk and ice cream from
 the LK Dairy.&nbsp; They married April 29, 1961, and shared almost 40 years 
of marriage prior to his death April 17, 2001.&nbsp; As Darrell climbed the 
corporate ladder with Dillon’s Food Stores, they moved across Kansas and 
Arkansas, sometimes transferring within weeks or months after the last 
move.&nbsp; Judy’s social nature was a godsend during these times as she 
worked to help Darrell and their three girls adjust to the constant 
moves. She quickly found work either at local salons or opening her own 
salon in their home.&nbsp; Once Darrell got assigned to the Dillon Offices as
 a Meat Market supervisor, Judy retired for a few years before 
purchasing Faircrest Beauty Salon in 1980 the year their oldest daughter
 graduated from High School.&nbsp; She continued to manage and work as a 
stylist at the salon until 1994 after her and Darrell paid the last 
college bill for their girls.&nbsp; Judy often said, besides raising her 
three daughters her greatest accomplishment and gift to the girls was 
their college education.

Judy had numerous hobbies and interests.&nbsp; Her greatest joy was 
traveling all over Kansas to attend as many of her grandchildren’s 
sporting events as she possibly could.&nbsp; She also enjoyed playing golf, 
bridge, and going to the casinos.&nbsp; Judy was known as a “wicked” card 
player.&nbsp; She enjoyed following politics and everything going on in her 
country.&nbsp; After her husband, Darrell died, Judy volunteered selling 
tickets at all the Trinity High School Basketball games, where she was 
known as “Grandma Judy” by all the Junior and High School students and 
staff.&nbsp; She was a member of Church of the Holy Cross (where she served 
as a Eucharistic Minister and Rosary Leader) and St. Teresa Catholic 
Church.&nbsp; She absolutely cherished all of her thirteen grandchildren, 
twelve great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild.&nbsp; She often 
thanked her girls for bringing such amazing son-in-laws into the family.

Judy is survived by:&nbsp; children, Sandra Pangburn (Steven) of 
Hutchinson; Stacey Cahn (Robert) of Derby; Suzanne Schowalter (Travis) 
of Overland Park; 13 grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren, and 1 
great-great-grandchild.

She was proceeded in death by: her husband, Darrell; her parents; 
infant brother, Harry Schumacher; sister, Alma Aich; brother, LeRoy 
Schumacher; and a nephew, Ricky Schumacher.

Parish Rosary will be held at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, July 30, 2022, with
 Mass of Christian Burial to follow at 10:00 a.m., both at Church of the
 Holy Cross, Hutchinson, with Father Aaron Spexarth officiating. The 
Mass of Christian Burial will be live streamed on the Holy Cross 
Catholic Hutchinson YouTube page. &nbsp;Private entombment will follow at the

HomeCare of Reno County, or Arbors Memory Care Assisted Living, in care 
of Elliott Mortuary, 1219 N. Main, Hutchinson, KS 67501.
