Danny Frank Jutson, age 71, devoted husband, father, brother, and grandfather, passed away peacefully on August 31, 2025, in his home, surrounded by family. He faced his cancer with grace and deep gratitude for those who supported him along the way.
Born in Waco, Texas, to Joy Fern and James Emory Jutson, Danny graduated as salutatorian of Kennedale High School’s Class of 1972. He went on to join the IBEW apprenticeship program, where he finished at the top of his class.
During his apprenticeship, Danny met Vicki (Roten), who would become his wife of 49 years. Together, they raised two daughters, Brandi and Jennifer. As a father, Danny led by example -instilling in his daughters the values of hard work, honesty, and loyalty to both family and friends.
Danny’s life was best defined by his “Work Hard, Play Hard” motto. He worked as a master electrician for the IBEW for 50 years, completing large-scale industrial projects with precision and pride. As an electrical superintendent, he traveled across the country, forged lifelong friendships, and earned a reputation for taking on - and conquering - the toughest jobs.
Outside of work, Danny found joy in fishing, hunting, riding motorcycles, and teaching anyone willing to learn how to throw darts. Whether on the job or at play, he gave his all and always aimed to be the best.
He is survived by his wife, Vicki (Roten) Jutson; daughters, Brandi Kleinman and Jennifer Styons; grandchildren, Brinley, Madeline, Harvy, AnnaClaire, Calvin, Winston, and Isabella; and his brother, Joe Daniel Jutson.
