Please know that you dont have to carry this grief alone. I'm here for you- weather you need someone to sit with in silence, listen, or simply remind you that you're not alone. I'm keeping your family close to my heart and praying that God surrounds you all with his peace, comfort, and strength in the days ahead.

Janet Sue Puterbaugh
2026-07-25
Janet Sue Puterbaugh (“Sue”), age 88, of Amelia Island, Florida, passed away on Saturday, July 25, 2026, peacefully at home, surrounded by family.
She was born on September 1, 1937 in Hillsboro, Ohio to the late William E. Brown and Mary Louise (Jones) Brown. She grew up in Wilmington, Ohio and graduated with honors from Wilmington High School where she was a cheerleader, active in many activities, and Homecoming Queen. After graduation, she married Myron Puterbaugh in 1955. She lost her first baby girl at birth in 1956. A baby girl was born in 1957, being the first of five living children. Later, the family moved to Cincinnati, Ohio where she worked as an executive secretary to a neurological group to support her husband through medical school.
The family moved to Dover-Canton, Ohio area to raise her five children. She was called “Weenie” affectionately by the family. She was a devoted and beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, earning the title of Matriarch of her large, extended family. She was an avid reader, with interests in knitting and needlepoint. She loved to travel, collect art and was a passionate and talented cook. However, her main interest, time and joy involved her family. She was highly intelligent, strong-willed with a wicked sense of humor, and provided comfort and wise advice to all.
She is preceded in death by her parents, daughter Cassie Sue, and sister Nancy Dodds. She is survived by her loving husband of 71 years, Myron (Pete), her sister Sharon Weaver, daughter Mari Lisa Puterbaugh, son Michael (Chris) Puterbaugh, daughter Janet Wroblewski, daughter Barbara Tavaglione, daughter Elizabeth (Tony) Degenhard, and fourteen grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, with three expected soon.
Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, September 6, 2026 at the home.
The family thanks Community Hospice Care for their compassionate approach. Please share your memories and condolences at www.oxleyheard.com.
