Jeff Rutherford

I appreciate the memory reminder. I truly admired my older cousin growing up. I will always remember him fondly. Love, Lon Hoss

The phrase "gone but not forgotten" sure applies to Jeff. He is especially missed this year as our class celebrates our 50 year reunion. He was our "fearless leader" and we´re scrambling without him.

Growing up in Eugene and Junction City area with my family everyone and I mean EVERYONE knew who the family was and who they were married to. Everyone started off with their high school sweethearts. Our family was not the normal family as everyone was raised fairly old fashioned. Their were a lot of us but we all managed to meet up for the big holidays. My Aunt Anna's and Uncle Jeff was the go to for some of the get togethers. There were great times in there shop all us kids running around...

ts difficult to find words to describe Jeff and how his life impacted so many people. He was so giving of himself to others. Ann and family, we continue to lift you in prayer, that Gods love and peace will keep you.

Jeff was a man I've always held in the highest regard. When I was a teenager I met him and his family when they joined our church. The love and leadership he expressed was unlike any I had known. He and Ann were examples in my life of faith and true love in a marriage that I got to see at a young age. A favorite memory I have is when our church youth group had an auction of labor to raise money for student activities. I was about 16 and had recently broken my hand and stood there in a cast,...

I was blessed to have spent special time with Jeff . One of Jeff's favorite things to say was I woke up today and wondered what God had for me to do . Jeff never thought twice about giving himself to anyone who needed his vast skills. Jeff would say All I have and all I am is because of Him. I cannot out give God How can you describe a true man of God that touched your life every time you were together. Love you Jeff.

Such sad news for the family. Jeff was such a kind & caring person with a rock solid faith.
He was always willing to reach out to others in their need. May the wonderful memories he left behind stay in the hearts of those who loved him.

Ride on, Jeff, with God right beside you. You will be forever missed!! Ann and all the family, we send our deepest sympathy and our love to each of you. Jeff, may you rest in peace.

How Sad, for the Family! At least he was doing what he enjoyed at this tragic time.
Our Hearts go out to Justin, and the whole Family.
