August 16, 1960 — May 30, 2016

Kelly Christine Harvey, beloved wife, daughter, sister, and aunt, 55, of Columbus, passed away suddenly on Monday, May 30, 2016.

She was born August 16, 1960 in Hartford, CT to Howard and Dolores (Robinson) Harvey, Jr. She is survived by her wife, Mary Elizabeth Ruttan, whom she married on June 23, 2014, in Branford, CT; parents, Howard and Dolores Harvey of East Hartford, CT; mother and father-in-law, Donna and Keith Ruttan of Kent; sisters, Kimberly Kinney of Cromwell, CT, Cynthia (Stephen) Dunne of Madison, CT, and Christine (Jeff) McAllister of Lebanon, CT; sisters-in-law, Kathleen (Rock) White and Susan (Jay) Valetta of Kent; brother-in-law, Keith (Jeannette) Ruttan of Twinsburg; six nieces; five nephews; as well as, Cassidy, an athletic and big hearted golden retriever.

A lifelong entrepreneur, at the time of her death, Kelly was the owner and winemaker at Signature Wines in Columbus. She took great pride in having grown Signature Wines from an idea she developed while making wines at home to the successful company it is today.

Kelly loved being busy and active - whether it was working at the winery, tending to her yard and flowers, taking long walks along the water, or planning for the future. Kelly's passions included discussing politics, learning the history of every new place she visited, and listening to the music of Frank Sinatra.
