He was a member of the West Edgecombe Ruritan Club.

He leaves his loving wife of twenty-nine years, Tammy Sears; son, Joshua Sears; father, Rusty Sears, Sr. (Louise) of Riva, MD; mother, Bonnie Bryan of Greenville; brother, John Bryan (Jasmine) of Greenville; sisters, Donna Wheeler (Eddie) of Tarboro, Jill Sears, and Stephanie Matthews (Donnell), all of Greenville; step-siblings, Ricky Bryan (Maria) of Massachusetts, Lori Erber (Tom), Robin Russell, and Robin Kelleher, all of Maryland; sister-in-law, Kim Sutton of Battleboro; along with several nieces, nephews and family friends.
