Charles W. 'Skip' Russell

Charles W. "Skip" Russell, 62, formally of Bucyrus Ohio, passed away Sunday, August 13, 2023, in Newport. 

Skip was a loving husband, father and grandfather, but his greatest joy came from being with his grandchildren and being a truck driver. He worked for Land Star Transport for seventeen years and received many awards and commendations for driving over a million miles with no accidents or citations. 

He was a US Army Veteran, serving from 1979 1984, and served many years in the reserves, until his health began to decline. 

Additionally, he was an active member of All Saints Anglican Church, he liked the color yellow and was an old sci-fi movie buff and enjoyed watching Mash. He would help anybody and had a true servants heart. 

Skip is survived by his loving wife of twenty-six years, Angelia Russell, daughters, Elizabeth Lewis and Kara Russell, grandchildren, Emma, Lillymae, Zachary and Lyani, sister Cheryl Covey, brothers, James, Richard and Robert Russell, as well as several nieces, nephews, extended family members and special friends.
