Share your Memorial with Family & Friends

To The Rutkowski Family, My heartfelt condolences to you all. I met your Dear Mother so many years ago in my Catechism Class at St. Charles. She never forgot my name. I would see her so often in New Bethlehem and we would talk about anything and everything. Her positive energy and kindness was truly shared with all. May God grant you Peace and Comfort Phyllis Veronesi

This is a very special message of condolence for all of Hoodie's family and friends who will miss her presence in their lives. I had the great privilege of receiving her authentic hugs and uplifting words every time she dropped by the Crisis Intervention Services office while I worked there with Elizabeth Griffin. Hoodie shared her creativity, talents, and genuine love for others through various outlets during her colorful life. It was an honor to have known her. It is my prayer that Hoodie's family will carry on her legacy as they journey forward, with your fond memories comforting you as you grieve.

Hoodie made me feel so welcome in her big rowdy family that I almost felt like her extra kid. I will miss her big boob hugs and genuine delight when she greeted me. I would like to express my sympathies to Debbie, Sandy, Gary, Perry , Beth and their families. Hoodie left such a kind, loving impression on my life. Kris

With a whistle and a "you-who," Hoodie would arrive at our door and any run down the alley would be some sort of adventure...like hopping in the Rutkowski station wagon to go off berry picking. My childhood was surrounded with her cheery song. Sympathies to the gang...Debbie, Sandy, Gary, Perry, and BethAnn.

What a wonderful woman she was. She never knew a stranger and was always larger than life. Fly high Hoodie. You certainly earned it. Many hugs and prayers for the family.

My sympathy to Hoodie’s family. She was a special lady and a dear friend of my Mother’s. She was a member of the Cinderella Club for many years.

Rest in Peace, Mrs. Rutkowski. I have so many wonderful memories of you. You were one of my biggest fans, and I will always love you for that. Just like the Maya Angelou quote, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." You embodied that quote more than anyone I know. I remember coming home from college feeling uncertain about my path and you were always there to ground me in what was important. I can see you, my mom, Mrs. Kundick, and Mrs.Caldwell enjoying one another, again, in heaven. Love you my friend - see you on the other side. Of course, my love and heartfelt condolences goes out to the Rutkowski family.
