Margaret E. Rudduck Dene died Aug. 13, 2013.
She born Aug. 26, 1941, in Mishawaka, Ind.
Mrs. Dene shined in various roles in nursing for more than 30 years. She was creative and enjoyed stained glass, making stuffed bears, painting and, most recently, fulfilled her dream of traveling to Ireland (to kiss the Blarney Stone) and visiting her late sister, Joyce, on the mission field in Bangladesh.
Mrs. Dene loved the Lord and is with Him now, rejoicing with her family, her precious poodles and birds that enriched her life for many years.
She is survived by her daughter, Cindy (David) Delapaz; grandchildren Cianna and David, of Brandon; her brother, Francis (Mary) Rudduck, of Fort Worth, Texas; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
Mrs. Dene was predeceased by her parents, Emmons (Hazel) Rudduck, of Mishawaka; and siblings, Robert (Phyllis) Rudduck, of Sun City, Ariz.; Beverly Jean (Ralph) Madsen, of Iowa and New Mexico; Betty L. (Ray, living) Brant, of South Bend, Ind.; and Joyce L. Rudduck of Waterloo, Iowa; former spouse Delbert Dene; and two sons, Anthony Patrick Dene Rudduck and Daniel Emmons Dene.
