Dr. Eric T. Rutherford

Eric, My 1st LOVE....You gave me a life and I "Thank You". Every where I went, I looked for you. I will never forget when we were dating in high school and you sang "Cat Scratch Fever" to me and you gave me your favorite guitar pick that night (I still have it). Your life here on earth was cut short, but I know that God had BIGGER plans for you in His Kingdom. I pray that one day I will see you again. I have always loved you and I will continue to have a place in my heart for you until the...

Eric, Thanks, buddy for all the good times and laughs. You really were a great guy who showed me more than anything that life was a gift, and every moment should be celebrated.

My Dearest Best-est Friend Eric HOW I MISS YOU SO!
There's not a day that goes by that I dont think about you or feel your presence. They say, "The sadness gets better with TIME" Well, I dont think I will ever stop HURTING from the loss of you!
I found Eric through his wonderful mother Gail, she contacted me to clean the condo's that Eric rented out. Though I only knew Eric a few years, it seemed as if I knew him forever!
As Eric got weaker, he asked if I could be his...

Eric will be much missed at all of our family gatherings however I suspect that he will be the one that we talk about the most---with some tears but big smiles on all of our faces! We feel so blessed to have been able to share all of the time that we did with Eric and hope that we can instill some of that spunk of life that he had into our own lives! What a great guy! :)
We love and miss you Eric!

I remember Eric as my best friend and neighbor. I remember the first time I met Eric, riding down Clark State Road on the riding lawn mower with his father. He had just moved to the neighborhood. We were in first grade. Eric and I had many fun times - playing with Laddie the dog, chasing Bam Bam the sheep and throwing horse dung at one another. Gail would take us for parfaits at the Dairy Twist and the Frog Walk at the park. We would spy on Jerry in the warehouse and swim in the pool in the...

I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER WHAT A SWEET LITTLE BOY ERIC WAS, GAIL. HE AND JILL, PLAYED WHILE YOU AND I DRANK TEA AND CHATTED IN REYNOLDSBURG. I REMEMBER HOW HE LOVED MY TOFFEE BARS. HE CALLED IT "REBA STUFF". I GOT A DELIGHT OUT OF THAT. I SEND MY LOVE, CONDOLENCES AND BLESSINGS TO YOU AND FAMILY.

Dr. Rutherford was a very respected pharmacist. I feel honored to have worked with him at Winter Park Memorial, and his legacy will continue to inspire me. I wish to express my condolences to his family. Goodbye Eric.

Eric was such a wonderful person it was truly an honor knowing him. I'm glad I had the opportunity to tell him we loved him so much. Everytime I think about Eric I can't help but smile and I know he loves being remembered that way.

Having known Eric has definitely enriched my life. We shared some great times in college and many more after. He lived life to the fullest, and I am glad to have shared many of those times with him. We'll all miss him.
