Dillon Kluttz Obituary

Dillon Scott Kluttz, 26, of Rockwell, entered the arms of our Heavenly Father after suffering from addiction and depression for several years, on Friday, Jan. 11, 2019 at his residence.
Born Aug. 28, 1992 in Rowan County. He was the son of Michael Scott Kluttz and Amy Kent Kluttz.
He was a graduate of West Rowan High School Class of 2010 and worked with his father as a machinist at Piedmont Alloy, Inc.
Dillon enjoyed running in high school on the cross-country team. He attended Southern Wesleyan University for a year. He enjoyed the beach and surfing, spending time with his son, and was avid about witnessing and working out for his health.
Dillon accepted Christ as Savior at the age 12.
Preceding him in death was his grandfather, Bobby Lee Kluttz and grandmother, Joyce Kent.
In addition to his parents, Michael and Amy, Dillon is survived by his son, Brayden Lee Royston; sister, McKayla Kluttz; grandmother, Betty Threadgill; grandfather, Max Kent; and the mother of his son, Brooke Royston.
Visitation and Service: The family will receive friends from 4:30-6:45 p.m, Thursday, Jan. 17, 2019 at First Reformed Church of Landis Fellowship Hall with the memorial service beginning at 7 p.m, conducted by Pastor David Franks.
Romans 8:38-39 states ""For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.""
Memorials: In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to the First Reformed Church of Landis, 210 N. Central Ave., Landis, NC 28088 to be placed in trust account for Dillon's son, Brayden.
Summersett Funeral Home is serving the Kluttz family. Online condolences may be made at www.summersettfuneralhome.com.

I never got to meet his son, but I shared a very special moment with he and his son looking at his photographs. I hope Brayden will be with the Lord one day. Dillon was a special friend.

Amy - There are no words to express my sorrow for you. You were an amazing teacher at North Hills and I am sure you are just as an amazing mother. I just want you to know you are in our thoughts and prayers. This disease knows no bounds. We love you and Mackenzie. Sam sends his love as well.

...Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal...

To:. Dillion's Family,
The Dillon that I know is resting in the arms of Jesus! Although cross-country was Dillon's favorite sport, he was also an Outstanding basketball player!!! It is with tears that I remember Dillon's time spent playing on our AAU Basketball Team. He was a pure joy to coach!! Not only did he handle the ball very well, he was a very mannerly, humble, young man, and a team before self player! May The Lord comfort us now and always as we remember Dillon's and his million dollar smile.

Dawn Sims,
