"To the family of Anita (RUT) Rutledge, I was truly sadden to hear that she had passed on to Glory. Anita, was always a true friend, a great joy to be around and you knew that you were going to have a good time whenever you were in her present. I remember when Anita came to Indy from Omaha, Nebraska to join us at Lilly. It was an honor to have known her and my heart is heavy.She truly loved her daughter Tasha, grandson and great grand daughter. She would light up when she talked about you all, she would light up and beam with so much love and pride. I loved how she always referred to grand children as little Hoosiers, her Indy joke ?. I will miss the good times we shared, our long conversations and small group dinners we had from time to time. Anita, was one those folks that you knew was meant to cross your path. I thank God for her friendship and allowing us to meet on each other's journey. She was an awesome Woman, and will be sadly missed. To her Family, I know this isn't easy but cling on to your memories and know she is at rest with our Heavenly Father. God's Blessings, with my condolences. Debbie Dupee'"
