Mitchell "Rusty" Jett Sikes

Mitchell (Rusty) Jett Sikes left his loving family and friends while working in Mobile, Al.
on May 17, 2018. Rusty, as he was known by many, was born November 19, 1956
in Louisville, Ms. He was the beloved son of Gail Tren and Rita Jett Sikes. He left
behind his most valued treasure, son Mitchell Tren Sikes. He is survived by his sisters
Rita Beard (Dean) and Virginia Plaisance (Kevin). He was the fun loving, young at heart
and often humorously mischievous uncle of Crystal Gail Williams (Mack), Cassidy Gayle
Plaisance, Gavin Beard, Connor Plaisance (Godson), Ryley Carlock, Brennan Carlock and Gracie Williams. Rusty loved spending his time outdoors camping and fishing. He could often be found boating along the coastal waterways of Lafitte and was never without a smile when doing what he loved most. Rusty spent his life working in the oilfield industry inspecting pipeline coating. He worked in Saudi Arabia, India and Nigeria. He lived for 5 years in Holland with his family as a child. Rusty made friends wherever he traveled or spent time. He was generous of heart, time and spirit and his loss will be felt deeply by all that knew him. He will forever remain a devoted father, loved and treasured son, best friend, heroic brother, thoughtful uncle and generous human being.
