Ron Luttrell, 86, Russell County, KY (1938-2024)

Ron Luttrell, 86 years old, of Russell Springs, passed away on April 2, 2024, surrounded by his family.

Ron was born to Arnett and Thelma Holt Luttrell on February 19, 1938, in Russell Springs. He attended Russell County High School. In 1955, he began serving his country in the U.S. Navy. After two years of service, he married the love of his life, Oleda Emerson, where they completed his remaining duty time in Jacksonville, Florida. He was a member of Immanuel Baptist Church in Somerset and was a member of the Masonic Lodge. He was an airplane pilot and loved flying and playing golf. He also enjoyed fishing and was an avid UK sports fan. More than anything, Ron enjoyed being "Granddaddy" to his grandchildren.

In addition to his parents, Ron was preceded in death by his brother, Don Luttrell; his sister, Phyllis Burton; his granddaughter, Sarah Luttrell; and his great-grandson, Isaac Stafford.
