RUSSELL TERRY STANSBERRY JR.
July 5, 2017
Russell Terry Stansberry Jr., 40, Clinton, went home to be with our Lord and Saviour Sunday, July 2, 2017.
He was born March 8, 1977, to Russell Terry Stansberry Sr. and Sonja Nelson Stansberry, both of Heiskell.
He is preceeded in death by his mother, Sonja Stansberry, just one short year ago.
He is survived by: Wife of 20 years, Shawnte Miller Stansberry; their two young sons, Russell Terry (R.T.) Stansberry III, and Rylan Al Stansberry; father, Russell Terry Stansberry Sr.; sister, Felisha Rhodes and husband Roger; nephews, Garrett Rhodes, Zack Rhodes, Jesse Rhodes, and Jake Miller; niece, Shana Miller; goddaughters, Hannah Freeman, Leah Freeman, Chloe Freeman, Bailey Wilder, and Amelia Wilder; a host of other relatives and many, many friends.
Russell was saved and loved our Lord. He not only professed his salvation but he lived it openly to the world, as well as behind closed doors. He loved his family and friends with everything in him. Everyone knew that Russell was a “go big or go home” type of personality and that’s exactly the kind of husband, father, brother, son, and friend he was. God thought he was so wonderful that HE gave the world two more of him when his sons were born. He was an extremely talented mechanic and everyone knew, “Russ could fix anything.” Positivity radiated from him and he never once complained nor asked “why me” after being diagnosed with brain cancer. After eight-years, three-months of fighting his body gave up but his unwavering faith and spirit never did. One could not help but to notice his BIG hands and BIG heart in which both had the desire to help anyone he met. He was loved by so many and especially by children. If you knew him, then I’m sure you have “a Russell story.”
He will be deeply missed by a multitude of people.
Special thanks to Dr. Kenneth Strike and Dr. Michael Thompson of Thompson Cancer Center in Oak Ridge, Dr. Paul Moots and Dr. Kyle Weaver of Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center in Nashville. Thank you to the amazing chemo nurses and hospice nurses who added so much love and care to this journey.
Receiving friends was at Holley Gamble in Clinton from 5 – 8 p.m. Tuesday, July 4, 2017. The funeral will be held at Carroll Hollow Baptist Church in Clinton at 11 a.m. Wednesday, July 5, 2017; the Rev. David Crowe, the Rev. Travis Freeman, Bro. Daniel Metcalf will all assist with the service.
A procession to Anderson Memorial Gardens will immediately follow with Pastor Cody Haynes to close his memorial service.
