Larry William Krutsinger was born on September 30, 1953, in Osceola, Iowa, to William and Ruth (Parmer) Krutsinger. He graduated from Mormon Trail Highschool and later met the love of his life, LuAnn (Johnson) Krutsinger. The two were married on December 31, 1973, and were blessed with three wonderful children.
Larry dedicated thirty-five years of his life to working at the Farmers Co-Op, a place where he truly enjoyed what he did. Having been there for so many years, there was nothing he couldn’t do all the way from spraying chemicals for farmers to working at the feed mill. In addition to his time at the Co-Op, Larry also worked for the county in road maintenance, hauling rock, removing snow, and much more. He was truly a do-it-all man, known for his strong work ethic and willingness to take on any task.
When he wasn’t working, Larry could often be found gardening and tending to his yard, something he took great pride in and thoroughly enjoyed. He also had a deep love for horses, if he had the chance he would’ve owned a whole herd.
Above all else, Larry cherished his family. His eight grandchildren meant the world to him, and he would do absolutely anything for them, just as he would for his children. His dogs also held a very special place in his heart.
Larry will be deeply missed by his wife of 52 years, LuAnn; their children: Travis (Amber) Krutsinger, Bradley William (Allison) Krutsinger, Laura (Jason) Tuttle; 8 grandchildren: Sam, Ava, Kate, Mya, Emma, Lilly, Jaxson and Elijah; sisters, Barb (Kenny) Kittle and Paula (Tim) Clark and many other extended family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his father, William Krutsinger; mother: Ruth (Parmer) Krutsinger; and infant brother: Richard Krutsinger.
