Clifford Lutz Obituary

Clifford "Cliffie" W. Lutz, a longtime resident of Darlington, Pa., went home to be with the Lord November 28, 2023, with his family by his side. Cliff had a brief illness that took him quickly, but peacefully. Cliff graduated from Riverside High School. He went on to receive an Associate Degree in body mechanics and business from Community College of Beaver County. He is preceded in death by his parents, Norman, and Joann (Klinesmith) Lutz; brother Tracy Lutz; and sister-in-law Sharon Boyles. He also is preceded in death by his beloved Uncle Francis "Fuzz" Bourdess; and his "second" mom Virginia "Ginny" Smiley. He leaves behind a wife, Lisa Andrews; two daughters, Dawn (Dave) Mosholder and Rebecca (Melvin) Lutz; a brother, Raymond Lutz; his granddaughter, Kiara Lutz, whom he loved deeply. Also surviving are step-grandchildren, Cierra, David, Emily, Dylan, Breanna, Eva, and Ethan. He had a host of friends, Benny, Dana, Bert, Ray, Mark and Jill, and "Big Jeff," all of whom remained by his side during his illness. He worked at Feezle Auto wrecking for over 30 years, where he built a second family. Cliff was a hard worker and dedicated employee. Each spring, he could be found in his garden, which he took pride in. He loved sharing his vegetables with everyone. Cliff loved riding motorcycles, especially Harleys, and rebuilding them. In his spare time, he split wood and talked about it often. It was not uncommon for Cliff to stop to help strangers stranded on the roadside, pull vehicles out of the snow, or give people rides when he couldn't get their vehicles running.

Cliff leaves behind a pig, Molly, and dog, Mystic.
