Born on June 16, 1916, at Dunbar, Iowa, she was the daughter of Thore and Anna (Bryngelson) Thorson. She graduated from the Dunbar High School's Class of 1933. On August 30, 1933, she was united in marriage to Gilbert Rutherford in Decorah, Iowa and farmed in the Dunbar community. Mrs. Rutherford was also employed at the Farmer's Co-Op in Gilman as a bookkeeper and J.C. Penney's in Marshalltown. She was a member of the Trinity Lutheran Church of Dillon, the Dunbar Happy Hour Club, Dillon Social Club, Senior Citizens "500 Card Club" in LeGrand, the Over "80" Club and a former bridge player. Alice will be fondly remembered for her love of family, reading, following the Hawkeyes, quilting, playing cards, gardening, raising chickens and appreciating the Iowa farmland. She loved to travel and see the world- visiting three continents, 18 countries and all 50 states (including Alaska and Hawaii twice). Her family was blessed with a trip to Europe to celebrate the Rutherford's 50 year anniversary in 1985. At age 85, she rode a camel in Australia and most recently at age 94 combined with her sons during harvest of 2010. Gilbert, her husband of 60 years, and Alice were avid square-dancers in younger years and she was able to see all their grandchildren and great-grandchildren graduate from college. Left to cherish her memory are her three sons:, Gary (Louise) of rural Marshalltown, Terrance (Rita) of Atlantic, Iowa, Brad (Paula) of rural Marshalltown and, four grandchildren: Steven (fiance' Rita) Rutherford of Columbia, MO, Jana (Tom) Pelham of Gilman, Lynn Rutherford of Denver, CO and Leigh Rutherford of Minneapolis, MN, three great-grandchildren: Taree Pelham, Tyler (Brittney) Rutherford and Jacob (Angela) Rutherford as well as a host of friends. In death, Alice rejoined her beloved Gilbert, her parents, a great-grandson Grant Rutherford, brothers Harold and Chester and sister, Olive Brenneck.
