It is with an extremely heavy heart that we announce the passing of our longtime colleague, esteemed arborist, loving Uncle and dear friend, Russell Neil Peters, on Friday, June 12, 2026.

Russell was born in Houston, Texas on September 17, 1959, to Donald and Lilian Peters. He was the youngest of three boys. Russell was raised in and around the love of sports and nature in Texas where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Ornamental Horticulture from Texas Tech University in 1982, and a Master of Science degree in Plant Pathology from Texas A&M University in 1985. He became an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Arborist in 1992 and joined Arborilogical Services, Inc. in 1996. Throughout his distinguished career, Russell continued to advance his professional credentials, ultimately becoming an ISA Board Certified Master Arborist.

Russell touched countless lives through his work, mentorship, and friendship. He was deeply respected by our staff, clients, and fellow arborists throughout the industry. His expertise, dedication, and passion for trees helped save a forest of ailing trees over the course of his career. Russell was one of the finest arborists in the industry and his contributions will benefit both the profession and the trees he cared for long into the future.

He will be truly missed by all those fortunate enough to have known him. We are grateful he was a part of our lives.
Russell’s family is considering a celebration of life memorial service at a future date. Additional details will be shared when they become available.
