Father Utrup was a dear friend of the family in the 60s and 70s. When I was 6 years old, he gifted me one of his beagles that he raised. I am forever grateful to him, as I had been begging my parents for a dog. Never will he be forgotten. Attached is a picture of Sister Belle, as we named her. Rest in Christ´s peace, dear Father.
