Rutledge, Thomas S. "Rut" entered into rest on Tuesday, December 26, 2017 at age 65. Beloved son of Ralph and Lorraine Rutledge. Dearest brother of Sue Rutledge, Barb (Everett) Hassell, Donn (Debbie) Rutledge and Patti Day. Rut is a dear uncle, great-uncle, great-great uncle, cousin and friend to many. At all of our family functions Tom would bring his Busch beer mug and wear his signature vest. He would have a cheat sheet in his pocket with all the jokes he would tell that day--Tom loved telling jokes and sharing the laughter. He was always the life of the party. All of his nieces and nephews will always remember him as Crazy Uncle Tom. The family is gathering privately to celebrate Rut's life.
