He participated in many extracurricular activities with the company including the kickball and bowling teams. Prior to accounting, he was a 20 year veteran of the Pizza Industry.

He was an avid fan of UK Basketball, a talented singer who could take on any karaoke song, a cycling enthusiast, and a cat lover.  He loved to watch stand up comedy and had the greatest laugh. All who knew him described him as one of the kindest people they had ever met. He was always smiling and positive and had a kind word for everyone. His greatest love was his wife, April, who he doted on and cared for above all else. He is preceded in death by his mother, Judy and his brother in-law, Chris Lord.  Russell is survived by his beloved wife of 19 years, April Gaffney Hibbs of Henderson, KY.; his father Dr. Russell A.
