December 15, 1963 - April 5, 2020
Russell Broad Sr died unexpectedly at his home on Sunday April 5th.  He was a loving father, grandfather, brother, and friend.  He had a smile that would light up the room and a sense of humor that made people laugh or cringe.  He was a very handy man willing to help in an instant with a home project or work on a car.  He loved his family so much almost to a fault.  He is survived by his children Russell Broad Jr, Nicole Block, Christoper Broad, and Koree West and 7 grandchildren.

Since this pandemic is so uncertain we will not be able to have a service.  Please share your memories and goodbyes here.

When you’re lost or feeling down,

don’t despair, just look around.

God made me red so you would see,

I still exist outside your memory.

I make my visits in bright daylight,

You’ll hear my song in distant flight.

My cardinal song is a call to you,

To tell you that I miss you too.

I am everywhere and finally free,

Like love  you cannot see.

You’ll see me in the trees and skies,

I didn’t leave, love never dies.
