Lawrence “Larry” R. Kutcher age 87 passed away on Friday, August 13, 2021, surrounded by family. He was born on February 7, 1934, in Alma, WI, to Elizabeth and Milan Cooper Kutcher. On January 16, 1960, married Yvonne Kutcher (Komassa), the love of his life, and started his family. Larry’s passions were his spouse, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, hunting, fishing, slots (jackpots please), working out at the YMCA, woodworking, handyman, mowing the lawn, and snow plowing. Larry worked at Badger Meter for 40 years, as a Senior Production Control Analyst when he retired in February 29, 1996. He lived in West Bend, WI, and loved his home. It was exactly 13 years on August 13, 2021, that he and Yvonne moved into their beautiful home in West Bend.
