Russell Raymond Lamontagne spent his last moments of his life with his family in Texas on January 5, 2022 joining his parents and 10 of his siblings in heaven. He was born in Lawrence, Massachusetts October 22, 1928, where he is survived by his brother Rene Lamontagne and sister Elaine Scanlon along with many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Russell and his wife Judy, of 69 years, moved to Houston, Texas on their honeymoon in 1952. Here in southeast Texas Russell started his legacy. His last words to his family were "Don't worry about it! It will be OK!". That is what he kept telling every day.

He is survived by his wife Judy, his four daughters and their husbands Judith and Glen Goodman, Gail and Casey Ward, Ele and Brian Manry, and Laurie and Greg Baxa, his nine grandchildren and spouses Bradley and Misti Payne, Cory and Hildegard Payne, Blake and Samantha Payne, Casey Jr. Ward, Nicholas Ward, Brian Jr and Christa Manry, Blaine and Allison Manry, Emily Baxa, Bubba Baxa, and his nine great-grandchildren Cayden and Charles Payne, Emilia and Leo Payne, Audrey and Bailey Manry, Elliott, Oliver, and Rey Manry.

A visitation will be held from 9:30 a.m.– 10:30 a.m., service immediately following the visitation. The Celebration of Life will be officiated by a dear friend of many years, Father John Rooney.
