David Jutras Obituary
He was born Jan. 2, 1942, to George and Irene Jutras of South Berwick and Wells Beach. He attended Berwick Academy from 1956-59. He starred in football and basketball, and was president of his class. David received a B.S. Degree in education from UNH in Durham, N.H., and taught at Sanford High School.
With his brother Paul they opened the "Inn Crowd" restaurant and motel in Ogunquit and also the "Inn Crowd North" in Portland. In 1976, David moved to Florida to seek new challenges. He spent the next 30 years working in the field of sports. Dave retired in 2002 and enjoyed his lifestyle.
Everyone that knew Dave was devastated by his early passing. He was an outstanding person, and a natural leader. People all his life would seek his advice. His children Robin and David want everyone to know that he was the best dad anyone could ask for. He is a person that will never be forgotten, and will be missed forever.
He is survived by: his Aunt Viola Chagnon; his brothers, Paul and wife Ann of Cocoa Beach, Fla., and Richard of Bradenton Beach, Fla.; two children, Robin Rivet and husband Robert of New Hampshire, and David J. Jutras, of Florida; nephews Paul G. Jutras, Fla., Jason Jutras, Hawaii; and grandchildren, Robbie and Timberly Rivet, N.H., and Cara Erickson and son Audun, N.H.

Dave "The Jute" was a good friend for over 30 years. We were neighbors on Hollywood beach back in the 70's and '80s and I have great and fond memories of the good times we had hanging out on the beach and in the various clubs in the area. We were laughing and joking every day of the week! What great times they were! I will miss you like a brother Dave.
My sincerest condolences to the Jutras family.

Dear Paul,Ann,Richie,Robin,David and the entire Jutras Family:
I was shocked and saddened to hear of David's passing. Our families grew up side by side at Wells Beach and I have so many great memories of those wonderful days.
David was always "Mr. Cool" and someone you could look up to. Though I hadn't seen him in several years, I always considered him a great friend.
In Sympathy,

To all of my Father's friends and family, I want you to know how proud I was to call him Dad. He was my rock and constant companion, and we were blessed to have each other. As the saying goes, "There are two kinds of changes-those I seek, and those that find me. I meet each with confidence and strength." That is my legacy of having the most wonderful father.
I love you Dad, your daughter Robin.
For anyone planning on attending the service there will be a luncheon following. Please RSVP, 603-669-0664.

My deepest sympathy to David's family. I remember many evenings spend at "Poor Richard's" where David was bartender and often sang "Scotch & Soda"-(when requested)! His wife and brother Richie also worked there. David was a good, kind man and a well remember friend of long ago.

Grandpa Dave,
I will miss you greatly. You were the best grandfather a kid could ask for. You never forgot to send a card or to make sure that I knew you loved me. I love you very much and will miss you.

Dear Paul and the Jutras Family,
I was saddened to hear of David's passing. I remember your family well. South Berwick was a great little town to grow up in. Bradenton, Florida is my home town now, and has been for the past 12 years.
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers, and may God give you His comfort at this difficult time.
