Steven F. Rutkowski, 42, of Center Valley, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, November 9, 2024. Born on April 10, 1982, in Allentown, PA, he was the beloved husband of Laina Wiegand, with whom he shared one year of marriage on October 7th, after eight years of loving partnership.
Steve was the proud owner of Custom Painting in Center Valley, a business he ran for over 20 years. His passion for painting extended beyond his work; it was something he deeply enjoyed as a creative outlet. Steve was also an immensely talented musician with a great love for music. He will be remembered as a kind, caring individual who was deeply loved and respected by all who knew him.
In addition to his wife, Steve is survived by his stepchildren, Kendall and Madison Perpente; his parents, Mary and Gordon Rutkowski; his sister, Christi Rutkowski; and his in-laws, Elizabeth and Arthur Wiegand.
A gathering to celebrate Steve's life will take place on Saturday, November 16th, from 11 AM to 12 PM, followed by a memorial service at 12 PM at the Falk Funeral Home, 1418 Main St., Hellertown, PA.
