Audrey K. Rutherford, 41, of Salina, passed away Wednesday, October 7, 2026. She was born to Rob and Pam Mephan in Ithaca, Michigan.

Audrey loved helping people and could make things out of seemingly nothing. She was a very bright, smart, funny and kindhearted woman. She loved the outdoors whether it was taking walks with nature or spending time at the park.

Audrey was a great woman, mother, and wife who spent her life caring for others but especially loved caring for her daughters and husband. They meant the world to her, and they will miss her so much.

You may support Audrey’s family at Spangles restaurant on Tuesday November 3, 2026. From 5-8 p.m. a portion of restaurant sales will be donated to the Rutherford family.

A memorial service will be held at a later date.
