Maxine Marie Rutherford
Maxine Marie Rutherford, 85, of Green Springs, OH passed away on Thursday, December 5, 2019 at Elmwood Assisted Living of Fremont. She was born September 10, 1934 in Fremont, the daughter of Roy and Esther (Seward) Grundy. She was a 1952 graduate of Fremont Ross High School.
Maxine married Bud Rutherford on June 11, 1954 at St. Mark Lutheran Church in Fremont.
She worked at Colemans in Fremont during her high school years. Maxine met her future husband while working there. He would stop there after playing baseball games. They started dating when she was a senior in high school. After graduation she worked at the National Bank in Fremont until their daughter was born. After their children started school she worked as an aide at the Green Springs School. She then worked at Clyde High School as a secretary for twenty-five years and retired in 1998.
Maxine enjoyed attending athletic contests during the past sixty-five years at Green Springs, Clyde, Baldwin Wallace, Eastwood, Upper Sandusky, Port Clinton and BGSU watching her husband, sons and grandchildren playing on and coaching athletic teams. She enjoyed going to football games the best.
