Verna Mae Rutherford (nee Winter), age 94, of Toledo, entered into her eternal home on August 31, 2021. She had been living with and receiving care from her daughter Barbara and hospice. Verna was born on January 24th, 1927, in Findlay, Ohio. She was the daughter of Avery Perry and Letha Fern (Cummins) Winter, beloved mother of Sharon A. (Donald) Krajicek, Barbara A. Boyle, Janis D. (Paul) Mack, and Terri S. Davis (Robert Beach), grandmother of Michelle L. Ruch, Ryan C. Mack, Shane M. (Lindsey Monroe) Mack, Kevin R. (Ashley Nye) Krajicek, Corey J. (Nicole) Mack, Jason A.

Before her short stay with her daughter, she had always lived independently. She was always determined to do things on her own and her way. Verna was a very strong, loving person. She raised four daughters and they are forever grateful for the lessons learned. Her legacy will live on in them and her grand and great-grandchildren.
