Ira Cutrell will live in my memory as one of the most cordial, caring and overall 'Good guys" I have met. It was an honor to have been blessed by his friendship and influence. He raised an exceptional family, was loved and cared for by an exception woman and made a major impact on many throughout his life. His presence will be missed, his lessons will be embraced and my heartfelt condolences goes to the entire family.
