Miss Lutze was born in the town of Herman May 7, 1916 and attended the Schwartzwald grade school from which she was graduated in 1929.

She taught at the Cleveland school until the time of her illness.

A young woman of Christian character, Miss Lutze was a lifelong member of St. John's Evangelical church at Schwartzwald. She was confirmed there April 13, 1930 and was active in the Young People's League and the Junior choir. In addition, she taught a Sunday school class. Miss Lutze was well-acquainted in Sheboygan county and at Cleveland and enjoyed a countless number of friends who mourn her early death.

Besides her parents, she is survived by two sisters, Elsie and Edna and a brother, Melvin, all at home and her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Gustav Lutze of Cleveland. Mrs. Lutze, mother of the young woman, was formerly Erna Hauenstein.

Burial was made in the church cemetery. Relatives and friends from Sheboygan, Sheboygan Falls, Manitowoc, Cleveland, Liberty and Kiel were present at the services. While the body lay in state at the family home, the coffin was surrounded by innumerable floral tributes. At the service at the home, the senior women's choir of the church sang the German hymn, Was "Fur Wonne Wird Da Fur Mich Sein." As the coffin was carried into the church, six young women of the Sheboygan County Normal school sang "Abide With Me" after which Miss Lutze's pupils from the Cleveland school in the Town of Sheboygan Falls sang "Jesus Loves Me." At the close of the service, the junior choir of which Miss Lutze was a member sang the hymn, "Jesus Lover Of My Soul." The congregation also sang the German songs during the service. Pallbearers were William Schultz, Raymond Hahn, Oliver Rautmann, Rudolph Bender, Orville Marx, and Harold Roeder. —Sheboygan Press, Wednesday, May 20, 1936, p. 6.
