RUSSELL EUGENE VINCENT was born on April 12, 1986 in St. Louis, MO to Stephanie A. Vincent and Ronald Williams and his bonus dad, Donnell Goodye Woods. Russell was preceded in death by his dad, Ronald Williams; grandfather, Russell E. Vincent Sr.; and brothers, Stephon Vincent, Terrell Vincent; and sister, Synetta Goodson.
Russell was known to his family as "Russell Roo" but to his friends as "G-Hustle". As he would always say--you can't spell Hustle without the STL.
Russell attended St. Louis Public schools. He later obtained his GED along with other certificates. He attended Scruggs Memorial Church.
In 2018, Russell met the love of his life, fiance Imani Hoover and her son, Jahaad Woods, who he accepted as his own.
Russell was loved by many but feared by some. He would light up a room upon his entrance. Russell was a good friend to the those he loved. He had a lot of heart. He wasn't afraid of nothing. He was so generous to his friends and family, and would split his last dollar with you. HE LOVED TO READ. HE WAS FUNNY. HE LOVED MUSIC. HE LOVED HIS NIECES AND NEPHEWS LIKE HIS OWN. He loved his sister (Kimmy) like she was his momma.
Russell departed this life on Thursday, March 25, 2021.
He leaves to cherish his memories: his mother, Stephanie Vincent; his grandmother, Claire J. Vincent, who played a big part in his life and whom he loved dearly; brothers, Ronald, Darrion, J ahi, Arnold and Camry and his additional brother, Rodney Toney; sisters, Kimmy (Rodney), MarkTina, Miya; nieces, Aneriona, Armani, Diamond, A very, Americkal, Dream, Kaniya, Khalani, Mia; nephews, Dwight, Cody Carmelo, Adian, Asher, Joshua, Elijah and King; and a host of aunts, cousins, family and friends.
