Florence Lucille
(Kruckeberg) Putterbaugh
Florence Lucille (Kruckeberg) Putterbaugh of Powell, Ohio succumbed to
COPD on September 3, 2013. She was born on January 22, 1927 near
Froid, Montana to the late Walter and Chelcie Kruckeberg.
Although she and her family moved to Versailles when she was 12 years
old, Florence’s heart was always in Montana. She was married to
Ward Eugene “Gene” Putterbaugh for 59 years before his passing in
2004. She is survived by children Beverly (Steven) Larson and
Ward Eugene “Gene” Putterbaugh, and by seven grandchildren and nine
great-grandchildren. Other survivors include sisters Esther Heft
and Alice Swinger, brothers Bob & Larry (Susette) Kruckeberg, her
sister-in-law Maxine Putterbaugh Alvarez, and by many nieces and
nephews. Her sister Laura (James) Batty preceded her in death.
Florence worked at North American Aviation, The Ohio Hardware
Association, and Scioto Village and Riverview School for Boys.
She was an excellent seamstress and quilter and she loved to travel.
A memorial gathering to celebrate the life of Florence will be held on
Saturday September 7, 2013 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Bailey Zechar
Funeral Home, Versailles, Ohio.
The family would like to thank Worthington Christian Village and
Gentiva Hospice for their compassionate care. In lieu of flowers
the family requests donations to the Alzheimer’s Association at alz.org.
