Obituary
Andrew Wiley UtterbackAndrew Utterback, age 29, beloved son and brother, died suddenly on January 7, 2010. He was born on August 6, 1980 in Orlando, Florida to Jennifer M. Beeman and Wiley V. Utterback. Drew was a 1998 graduate of Middleton High School. A student at Madison College, Drew was on his way to a career in computer technology that he enjoyed and found challenging. Never happier than when coaching lacrosse, Drew also loved movies and video games, singing karaoke and enjoyed being with his brother and sister. Drew was an outspoken advocate for those less fortunate. Drew served in the U.S. Navy from 2000 to 2002, and was thrilled to spend much of his time in Hawaii, where he found the best sushi of his life. His dream was to live in California. Drew is survived by his mother Jennifer Beeman of Sacramento, California, parents Wiley and Margaret Utterback of Middleton, Wisconsin, sister Kaitlin Utterback, brother David Utterback, grandparents Barbara Beeman (Sacramento), Wiley and Ellen Utterback (Sacramento) and Harris and Mary McKee (Bella Vista, Arkansas), numerous and loving aunts, uncles and cousins, and many friends who will miss him daily. He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Jack Beeman.\r\n

Dear Wiley and Maggie,
I am so deeply sorry to learn of Drew's passing. In his photograph he certainly looks a lot like Wiley. May you find some solace in your warm memories of Drew and in the knowledge that he lived a happy and loving life with you as parents.
With the deepest of sympathy,

LIFE, LIKE A MIST, APPEARS FOR JUST A DAY, THAN DISAPPEARS TOMORROW. ALL THAT WE ARE CAN QUICKLY FADE AWAY, REPLACED WITH TEARS AND SORROW. IF A MAN SHOULD DIE, CAN HE LIVE AGAIN? HEAR THE PROMISE GOD HAS MADE: "HE WILL CALL, THE DEAD WILL ANSWER. THEY SHALL LIVE AT HIS COMMAND. FOR HE WILL HAVE A LONGING FOR THE WORK OF HIS OWN HAND. SO HAVE FAITH AND DO NOT WONDER, FOR OUR GOD CAN MAKE US STAND. AND WE SHALL LIVE FOREVER AS THE WORK OF HIS OWN HAND." (JOB 14:13-15) WE ARE SO SORRY ABOUT YOUR LOSS. TAKE CARE.
