To Everyone in the Utz Family

Our hearts go out to all of you in this sad time. May the memories of a happy life give you genuine comfort. We are so sorry we cannot make the service but we will be with you in prayer.
“When my body won’t hold me anymore
And it finally lets me free
Where will I go?
Will the trade winds take me south through Georgia grain?
Or tropical rain?
Or snow from the heavens?
Will I join with the ocean blue?
Or run into a savior true?
And shake hands laughing
And walk through the night, straight to the light
Holding the love I’ve known in my life
And no hard feelings”
—Rick and Mary (Dickey) Groger
