Support for Russell's Family in Their Loss

Donation protected
Hello all, as most of you have heard by now my nephew Russell Williams has passed on to be with the lord on 7-23-25 at 12:35am. He has battled lupus for 3 years with many many ups and downs! He was on kidney transplant list moving from stage 3 to 4 to 5. Unfortunately recently he was hospitalized and eventually put on full time dialysis and life support. Non stop pumping meds and heart medicine into his body. He was put into a coma as he was fighting to breath and fighting the breathing machines causing more harm to his organs and this is why he had to be sedated and paralyzed. While the efforts to keep his organs going and get them back to healthy Dr's were working countless around the clock treatment and trying to figure out what exactly was going on with him. Well they had finally figured it out so we were told there is a game plan in action with a differnt medicine to hopefully help this youg man out well it was Histoplasmosis he had caught. With the lupus as well let's just say it wasn't good. With Heather, Mike, Ashley and Alex taking all this time off to be at his bedside waiting and wondering with alot of hope he would be ok they missed work, fuel, food, and just a whole lot of expenses have racked up while we are not necessarily trying to recoup all that as much as would be appreciated We are asking if available and you have it in your heart please share this spread the word if you cannot donate, if u can great no amount is to big or to small to help lay our beloved son, brother, grandson, uncle,nephew, to rest. Russell enjoyed working for Manatts as a concrete ready mix driver and broke his heart when this illness took it from him to be able to work. He had a major passion for riding his motorcycle and riding with his "biker boys". Russell will be riding high in the sky for countless miles on his Harley now. Visitation will be 8-7-25, celebration of his life will be on 8-8-25. Will post obituary info as soon as it is available from smiths funeral home! I wanna personally all thank you for your time in reading this!Please Pray for his family and God bless you all!
