Frank Utsch Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Darby Funeral Home - Canton on Mar. 5, 2026.
Frank Robert Utsch, 80, of Canton, Georgia, passed away peacefully on Thursday, March 5, 2026, at Wellstar Kennesaw Mountain in Marietta, Georgia.

Frank was born on December 27, 1945, in Mt. Kisco, New York, to the late Franz and Irene Utsch. He proudly served his country as a veteran of the United States Navy. Following his military service, Frank built a long and respected career as a Project Manager in Nuclear Engineering, where he was known for his professionalism, strong work ethic, and dedication to his field.

Above all else, Frank cherished his family. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, and brother whose steady presence and quiet strength meant so much to those who knew him. He will be remembered for his kindness, his devotion to those he loved, and the many memories shared with family and friends.

He is survived by his loving wife, Karen Utsch; his sons, George T. Mulligan (Angie Barnett) of Troy, Alabama, and Sean M. Utsch (Erin) of Canton, Georgia; his cherished grandchild, Shannon M. Utsch; and his sisters, Pauline Utsch, Susan Utsch, and Rosemarie Haskell, all of Augusta, Georgia.

Private family services will be held at a later time.

The caring staff of Darby Funeral Home is honored to serve the family of Mr. Frank Robert Utsch.
