It is with heavy hearts that we share the unexpected passing of George Russell, a loving husband and father, from Acute Myeloid Leukemia on January 31, 2026. George was a devoted family man, a great friend, and a respected colleague who touched the lives of everyone around him. He leaves behind his loving wife, Ellen, and their two sons, John and Ben. This sudden loss has left their family facing unimaginable grief, along with the financial challenges that come with losing a husband and father far too soon.


George was always the first to lend a helping hand, and George's positive spirit made a lasting impact on everyone he met. The Russell family is now navigating life without his guidance and love, and the emotional toll is compounded by the financial uncertainty that comes with such a loss.


We are raising funds to help support Ellen, John, and Ben during this incredibly difficult time. Donations will help with burial arrangements, medical bills, and ongoing needs, allowing the family the space to grieve without added financial stress. Any contribution—no matter the amount—is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping the Russell family in your thoughts and prayers.
