Rusti Steele, R I P ... You ARE missed!

9/23/1976 - 8/13/2024

 

If you've followed Rusti for long, you've heard me spoken of at times. I'm Anna and I lived with Rusti for many years. We had a wonderful friendship and were BFFs going back, in years, to the 1st grade of school.

 

We've lost Rusti this morning, August 13, 2024 at 4:28am. She was 48. She passed from complications of COVID combined with COPD and bacterial pneumonia.

 

It is my intentions to keep Rusti's photostream functioning and active. I have prepared myself for the loss of many of Rusti's followers and friends. I understand. Not many have her charisma and personality. She never met a stranger.

 

UPDATE: 4/20/2025 After finding two stolen photos, I've taken ALL videos and photos of Rusti off Flickr.

UPDATE: 1/20/2026 IF you choose to follow, but only have faves to show, I will block you

What else can be said. When I saw what she favored from my stream, I knew this was one great lady. I have met maybe 2 or 3 people that inspire me to do more, that are intriguing and that excite the artistic values deep in me....................this lady is tops. Exciting, talented, creative and the best I think, she has many interests that show thru the photographs in her stream. Someday I hope to shoot a few days of still life with her, will be an honor!
