Some men love, some men love hard. Rusty loved hard.
He was a loyal friend and family member. Quick with a joke, always with a smile, and a laugh that was as loud, as it was contagious. His passion for life was endless. He loved to burn good meat on the grill, drink a cold beer, whistle annoyingly, and utilize those charmingly beautiful blue eyes to get into and out of trouble. His greatest accomplishments, "Pickle" and "Daddy Maddie."
Rusty left his earthly family, too soon, on December 13, 2018. He is survived by his son, Ethan Taylor McCarthy(Ethan's mom, Anna) and his daughter, Maddie Layne Hagan, (Maddie's mom, Lacey) his mother, Jane Ewell, his father, Philip Hagan, his sisters, Emily Hurst (Kennon Lee, Kennon Haas) and Chloe McCleary (Mike, Lane, and Fiona), his paternal grandmother Hazel Hagan, his one true love Leah Guillory and numerous family and friends he has charmed over the years.
He is preceded in death by his grandparents Dave and Ruth Ewell, LC Hagan, and his lifelong friend and cousin, Andrew Mixon.
