I was with the RSU when GySgt Utz was the Admin Chf at II MACE. He was an outstanding Marine. Semper Fi!

I am in shock and so sad that Geoff is gone. Of the 36 years that I worked for the Marine Corps the years that Geoff and Pat were stationed in KC were definitely the most fun. I still tell the best stories of how they "tortured" me daily. Geoff's sense of humor will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathy to his family for I know they will have a terrible void in their lives. Pray that peace will come in time.

No words can replace the man I had the pleasure to meet 28 years ago in Kansas City. His personality was contagious and his love for his family and friends was unparalleled. He will be greatly missed and we were all honored to have met such an outstanding man. The DeCook family sends or deepest sympthaies to the family of Gunny Utz, a great and courageous United States Marine.
