Obituary of Larry Ruttan

On December 13th, 2022, Larry Ruttan passed away peacefully at Seven Oaks Hospital after a hard fought battle with cancer. He was surrounded by family and friends. Larry was born on April 24, 1949 in Deloraine, Manitoba. He was raised in a farming community with uncles, aunts and many cousins and learned the value of hard work. He attended schools in Goodlands, Waskada and Deloraine. Although Larry enjoyed his times of employment working for farmers in Manitoba, his first love was the transportation industry as a long-haul truck driver. He took impeccable care of his vehicles over the years and appreciated the joy of being “on the road”. Larry was predeceased by his mother Jean Ruttan; and aunts and uncles who were formative in his life in his early years. Larry is survived by his brother Garnet (Lorraine). He will be missed by numerous cousins and longtime loving, faithful friends, Norm (Florida) and Marcel. There will be no formal service. Interment will be in Goodlands Cemetery at a later date.
