Nancy Lou Rutt

Nancy was born in Denver, Colorado to Josephine Coliff (Benish) and Charles Coliff on March 26, 1940. She was preceded in death by her husband and both her parents.

Nancy married the love of her life, Roy Rutt on November 19, 1960. She will be sorely missed by her children, Lisa (Curtis) Foxworth and Chuck (Debbie) Rutt. Family was always at the heart of everything they did. She enjoyed watching her grandchildren grow up, Crystal (Mark) Menke, Vanesa (Brandon) Hess, Corey (Teresa) Foxworth, and Kyla Rutt. She attended as many of their life events as possible. The great grandkids held a special place in her heart, Kyndle Menke, Cali Hess, Makena Menke and Ryker Hess. She so enjoyed their visits and watching as they grew.

There are so many treasured memories. Camping and fishing on the Elk River, eating the corn out of the garden, creating magical gardens, and playing Mahjong. The grandkids will always remember the Mahjong games, cooking and helping to plant flowers.

Nancy was a league bowler, enjoyed swimming and playing golf with her friends. When she lived in Salt Lake City, Utah, you could find her up at Brighton Ski Resort skiing.

Her dedication to Garden Club was very special. She always took such special care of the different gardens. Some of her fondest memories, where of the friends she made, and time spent with them playing Mahjong. Nancy loved her gardens, her home and spending time camping.

Nancy was always so generous with her time and a loving spirit. She really enjoyed babysitting her grandkids when they were little and going to all their events as they grew. One of her special talents was letting you know how much you were loved.

She took special care of her grandkids by cooking each one of them their favorite food.

She would always tell someone, “It’s okay honey”.

Mom’s smile was pure joy.

She was always watching over us and will continue to do so.

Roy and Nancy’s Celebration of Life will be held on December 17, 2025 - 11:00 a.m. at Allnutt Funeral Service-Hunter Chapel in Loveland, Colorado.
