Doug Rustay

Greetings.

It is with a heavy heart that we reach out to you today. Brother Doug Rustay passed earlier this morning. Arrangements have yet to be made.

Doug had a distinguished and long career in Scouting being in his youth. He was a part of and responsible for programs in the Northeast Georgia Council including serving at Rainey Mountain as the Trading Post Manager and Camp Director for many years. He graciously agreed to work for the Lodge as our Trading Post Adviser when I became Lodge Adviser and made a number of improvements. In 2018, Doug was recognized with the Founder’s Award.

Doug was a Vigil Honor member of our Lodge. His was given the name from the Lenni-Lenape nation: “Allogagan” which is translated in English means ‘He Who Serves.’

As more information is shared, we will let you know. Please keep him and his family close to your hearts, in your prayers, and lift them up as they navigate this difficult time.

Yours in Brotherhood,


Rusty Royston
Lodge Adviser, Mowogo Lodge
Northeast Georgia Council, BSA
