Deborah Ann Rutledge of North Hudson, Wis., died unexpectedly Jan. 10, 2023, at her home, presumably from a heart attack. She was 65.
Debbie was born Jan. 22, 1957, to Marvin and Gertrude (Neumann) Rutledge. She graduated from Osceola High School and later attended ADvTECH. Debbie worked in administration at West Publishing, The St. Paul Travelers Insurance Company, and finally at 3M, where she retired.
Deborah was active in her community and helped raise funds for many charitable causes. Two of her favorites were Relay for Life and Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Her family and faith were the most important things to her in life. She cherished all the memories she made with her family and friends. She put many miles on her car often taking her nieces and nephews on trips, going to countless ballgames and school events, taking an afternoon drive to visit relatives and the many times she took friends to and from appointments. She loved her family deeply and worked hard to keep in touch with as many as possible also working on the Rutledge/Neumann genealogies. Her devotion to help others and her faith was great. She often attended mass at many different churches in the area.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Marvin and Gertrude; brother, Douglas; sisters, Mary and Diane; nephew, Joseph; great-niece, Autumn Bergeron.
She will remain in the hearts of her siblings, Daniel (Lisa) Rutledge, Delroy (Shirley) Rutledge, Duane (Tracy) Rutledge, and Dominic (Pam) Rutledge; sister-in-law, Cindy Rutledge; nieces and nephews Dawn, Dean, Denise, Deeann, Jeremy, Dusty, Belinda, Misty, Ashley, Logan, Becky, Alissa, Matt, Cassie, and Sierra; and many loved great nieces and nephews.
A Mass of Christian Burial was held Jan. 16 at St. Charles Catholic Church in Bayport, Minn.
Memorials are preferred to the family and will be distributed to some of Debbie’s favorite charities.
