Janelle, Amanda, Debbie, Brenda and all family and friends I was shocked and very saddened to hear of Rusty's death. Rusty was in a group of my best friends from almost 40 years ago.We had so many good times together. What comes to mind first was Rusty's hospitality, wanting you to visit, and cooking! He truly cared about people close to him. We lost him much too soon. y heart goes out to family and friends of Rusty. I hope all the good memories will help to pull you through. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. almost 40 years ago. We enjoyed some many good times together

To the family of Rusty Dunbar, I knew Rusty as a customer at his automotive shop. Years ago I was referred to his shop by a friend who told me it was an honest business that would never cheat the customer. I found that to be true with Rusty. He was always ready to work on my cars on a short notice, sometimes even coming to the house to look at a vehicle. If he felt his services were not needed at any point, he would tell me to save my money until a later time. I will miss him very much. He was always friendly and I always looked forward to talking to him. All of his family and loved ones are in my prayers. Lawrence Chewning Florence
