Raymond Lutz of Niantic, IL went home to be with our heavenly father on December 12, 2021.

Raymond was born April 3, 1940 in Chicago, IL to Walter and Barbara (Miller) Lutz. He married Judy Ann Achilles on June 6, 1964 in East Moline, IL. Together they were blessed with three children – Raymond, Julie (Keith) and Judy (Jeff); six grandkids – Kyle (Tori), Damian, Tyler (Krista), Drake, Bryce, Hannah (Cody) and five great-grandchildren – Kobi, Kloe, Scarlett, Jude, Tucker.

For 20+ years Ray owned and operated Ace Auto Parts in Silvis, IL. His passion and hobby was of anything that had speed, including stock cars, race horses and their race cars – the Henry J and front engine dragster. Ray and his best friend, Bob Beedy, had the Beedy & Lutz front engine dragster that they raced all over the Midwest for 30+ years.

Ray was a devoted family man always putting his wife, children,  grandchildren and great-grandkids first.
