Harry was 72 years old and a long time resident of Kansas City. He was born in Columbia, MO, on February 7, 1928, to Harry Lawson Kluttz and Grace Gibbs Kluttz. Harry graduated from high school in Mexico, MO, and attended Westminster College, where he found his life's work--teaching. H. L. was a TEACHER! His first two years were spent at Ruskin High School and then he moved into the city, where he spent the next 38 years at Paseo High School. He was assigned to teach social studies but his lessons were as much about humor, dignity, social grace and developing an understanding and appreciation of your own self-worth. On Sunday, his lessons moved to his beloved Church, where he taught Sunday School and served as a Deacon. Summers for Harry did not end his teaching and learning. He frequently traveled the world with friends always learning and sharing about different cultures. Also, summer for Harry meant camp and for many years he sponsored students to and served as a counselor for Camp Miniwanca, a Christian retreat for youth in Michigan. Yes, Harry was a social studies teacher, but he really taught about the highest glories of life. All who knew Harry were "his students" and he will be sadly missed by his family and friends whom he touched deeply. (Arrangements: D. W.
