Russells Funeral Home

Cosmos Russell, Owner and Founder of Russell's Funeral Homes was born on September 7, 1929 to Harold and Bridget Russell. He was the third of nine children. He was a very young man when he went to work on the Ernest Harmon Air Force Base. He decided to go into business for himself and opened a taxi company in Stephenville Crossing.

It was while he operated his taxi company that he saw a need for an ambulance service and later a funeral home. He continued to operate the ambulance service and funeral homes until his passing in 2005 at the age of 76 years. Today his legacy continues with his family who still operate the businesses.
