Stuart Heath Rutherford

To My Father, He was a father so very rare, constant in his home and always there, On Earth he toiled, In heaven he rests, God Bless you Father, You were one of the Best. Each time we look at your pictures you seem to smile and say; don't be sad , Until we meet again...

Rest in Peace to one of My Biggest Fans, Life Coach, and Grandfather. Heaven has gained an angel today. My grandfather has always been there for me & my sister. He rarely missed a football game or a concert. I'm so fortunate to have gotton to see him a week before he passed. His Cancer spread so fast and there was nothing to be done, but I have never seen someone so satisfied with their Life than him. I will dearly miss you Papa !!!! Thank You for Everything !!

A little late finding out about my old friend's passing. Stuart ("Ruthie") and I were Navy shipmates in fighter squadron VF-154. I was Stuart's shop leader and we traveled all over Japan and the Philippines together, rollicked and enjoyed life wherever the squadron took us. We became reacquainted a few years back when he contacted me on Classmates, and had some great email communications and chats since then. When my Christmas letter and emails suddenly drew no response, I became concerned...

In loving memory to a Wonderful Person-Man & Husband. I will always love him for the GREAT man he was and I will miss him always. My sincere and deep sympathy goes out to Meleah-Robin-Ryan-Emily-Aunt Janet & Ken & Janet. I will always remember the GREAT times we spent together>>> especially our Trip to England & Scotland.

Stu was like family to ours. We were blessed to meet him over 6 years ago when we moved to Mcminnville. He was like my kids grandfather. He came and watched our kids play baseball and softball. We attended car shows together also. My kids had a nick name for him (spiderstu) is how he is known at our house :) he always had the best words of comfort and advise. I must mention tho my favorite part about stu was his sense of humor he ALWAYS made us laugh and look at the brighter side of things....

Stuart was not only a very good friend and mentor to me as I was learning the chemical business he was my father Eldon Page's best friend. I'am sure Stu and my father are clinking a glass, Talking about Dubois Chemical and the Mason family they were both in. I'am going to miss Stu very much, until we meet again. My sincere condolence to the Rutherford family and his many,many friends.

One of my best friends. Almost daily, we talked and often went back to Tigard Sr. High and reminisced a lot about the good ol' days.Loved his humor and advice. Yvonne Saarinen Addington

So sorry to hear of his passing!
