Beacham, right, here with colleague Sammie Smith, passed away Tuesday night of complications from surgery. ?We'll always remember Rutledge and the indelible impression he left,? Carter Chairman and CEO Bob Peterson said. In Washington, BOMA International leaders were saddened by the loss of a longtime member who held several local and regional leadership positions. ?Rutledge has been a part of the fabric of the organization,? said BOMA International chief Henry Chamberlain. ?We got a lot of things done because of him.
