Obituary of John Sherwood Rutherford

IN THE CARE OF

Nelsen Williamsburg
On a sunny Saturday 02-02-2019 John Sherwood Rutherford, "Woody", left this world. He is back on the golf course, tennis courts or out sailing the Chesapeake Bay. Maybe he's even kicking back with a martini playing his word games. Know that he is at peace in the Universe. Do not mourn for him. It's not his way. Celebrate the life he had and the lives he helped create. He is survived by his loving wife, daughter, two sons and 2 grandchildren. Donations can be made to Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters or Sentara Hospice Services.
