    Heaven gained an angel on October 25th, 2023. She had an absolute unshakable belief in God, a passion for her family and what she could do for them, and a strength in life I truly hope I can embody someday. My mother, Janis Ann Rutledge, is a true beauty inside and out. She taught me so much- from how to be a lady, how to think for myself, how to speak up for myself, that blood doesn’t necessarily mean family, that life, love, and expectations comes in all shapes and sizes, and even to the rules of football…and everything in between!! I am so proud of myself today, what I have overcome, and the internal strengths i have gained; I can honestly say that without my mother and her belief in me, i would not feel that way today or be so proud and excited about the future. There is so much to pass on to my amazing son Ethan from his amazing nana and that is a true gift every day of my life!!! I miss her so much and will always miss her so very much, but she has been called home, she is at true peace, and she is with so many missed family members- I know she is loving getting to see again, and now… forever! We talk nonstop mama, so that will never stop! You are such a blessing to me and to Ethan and thank you for all you did and will continue to do as you watch over us; I could not choose a better guardian angel! Fly high beautiful mama, you will be so very missed!!
