Charles "Charlie" Irvin Lutz

Charles “Charlie” Irvin Lutz, 73, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, August 17, 2020.

Charlie was born in Morehead City, North Carolina, to the late Charles Edward and Sallie Coleman Lutz, on March 30, 1947. A proud United States Air Force Veteran, he discharged honorably from the military in 1974, and began a successful 32-year career at Raytheon Company as a Radar Flight Test Engineer. Charlie was also a true follower of Christ and enjoyed serving as an Elder with various Christian Ministries. He was deeply involved with Tres Dias Ministries, as well. In his free time, Charlie loved playing tennis, traveling, especially in his RV, and being a campground host in the mountains of North Georgia, but his greatest joy came from time spent with his family.

Those left to cherish Charlie’s memory are his loving wife of 53 years, Kandi Lutz of Byron; children, Charles Craig Lutz (Shanon) of Flowery Branch and Krisi Moser (Brian) of Byron; grandchildren, Mariah and Sierra Lutz, Jayson Hester, and Krystal Moser; sisters, Beth King (Bennie) of Roswell and Ann Quigley (Tom) of Etters, Pennsylvania; and a number of nephews.

In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully suggests memorial donations be given in memory of Charlie to Kindred Hospice, 105 Jim Mason Ct., Ste. 100 & 200, Warner Robins, GA 31088 or to a church or charity of your choice.
