Michael George Rutledge was born on November 28th, 1982 in the Bronx, NY, and left us on October 23rd, 2025, at the age of 42. He was a beloved son of Cecilia and George Plummer, a caring brother to Destinee, Ryan, and Jordan, an adored uncle to Adyn and Alaia, a nephew to several aunts and uncles, a cherished cousin, and a good friend to many.

Michael graduated from Baldwin Senior High School and attended Nassau Community College. He helped his father build a successful trucking company before embarking on a journey working with cars and ultimately returning to his passion of driving trucks.

Known for his gentle demeanor, strong work ethic, loyalty, and constant encouragement. Michael touched the lives of all who knew him. Many remember him as a simple man with a big heart, and his kindness will be missed immensely.

He has entered eternal life, now reunited with his grandparents and beloved Aunt Jackie, who preceded him. His memory will forever remain in our hearts. He leaves behind his parents, sister, brothers, niece and nephew, along with a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who loved him. Please keep them in your prayers.
