In Loving Memory of
Russell “Rusty” Rydholm.
April 24, 1955–August 25, 2009

A loving husband, father, grandfather, uncle, friend, fire fighter. Rusty battled this horrible disease with family and friends by his side everyday. He kept a smile on his face knowing that he was living with a disease that had no cure. He will be missed by all that knew him.

The years we’ve shared have been full of joy.
The memories we’ve made will go on and on.
I haven’t stopped crying since you went away,
and I’ve asked God time and time why couldn’t you stay.
You lit up my life, my hopes, and my dreams.
You’ve opened my eyes to see what it all means.
So now that you’re gone how can I forget;
Because you were the greatest out all I have met.
