Tamara Rutherford Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sunset Funeral Care on Dec. 8, 2023.
Tamara Jo Rutherford, a beloved wife, stepmother, and grandmother, passed away on October 9, 2023, at the age of 59. She was born on October 21, 1963, and her presence in the lives of her family and friends will be deeply missed.
Tami's devotion to her husband Dwight Rutherford was evident in every aspect of their life together. Their love was a shining example of commitment and support, inspiring all who knew them. As a partner, Tami filled Dwight's life with love, laughter, and unwavering support.
Tami's role as a stepmother extended beyond her immediate family, as she embraced each member of her family with open arms and a kind heart. She found immense joy in sharing her love and wisdom with her stepchildren, cherishing every moment spent together.
One of Tamara's most cherished roles was that of a loving grandmother. Her grandchildren held a special place in her heart, and she showered them with affection, wisdom, and unconditional love. Tami created lasting memories with her grandchildren, instilling in them the values of love, kindness, and family.
Tami will be remembered for her unwavering love, compassion, and the light she brought into the lives of those who knew her. Her legacy lives on in the hearts of her family and friends, who will forever cherish the moments shared with her.
While Tami's departure leaves a void in our lives, we find solace and strength in the love she shared with us. May her soul find eternal peace, and may we carry her memory in our hearts forever.
