Zenon Rutkowski Obituary
He is survived by his wife and best friend, Nancy, his children, Pat and Bob, Peggy and Mike, and Paul, and 5 grandchildren.
Zeno was a lifelong dairy farmer. He had the distinction of having the top Holstein dairy farm for several years. He also served his country in the US Army in Washington, DC.
Abiding with the family's wishes, there will be no calling hours or funeral. Zeno will be laid to rest on the hill, next to his son Zenon, Jr. He is never leaving home.

When I think of Zenu (which is what his Mother called him) I picture him going past our house on his John Deere tractor, travelling between the two farms he prospered on. He was my Dad's first cousin and he was always a good guy. Will never forget him.

Dearest Nancy; Zen was one of my heroes growing up. I saw him almost every day except when he was in the Army. He always had a smile and made me laugh. Know that he has found his Peace. I have you in my prayers during this time of grief.
