The eternal optimist Herman truly never met a stranger and always left people feeling good about themselves and happy they knew Herman Jutzeler. His pleasant personality and strengthening kind words were gifts he shared until his final days. Martha and Herman were always shining examples of a strong marriage, loving parents and grandparents, and thoughtful, sharing friends to all they knew. Among Herman's relatives, cousin George Edward Kornahrens is Herman's lifelong friend and partner in many now-funny escapades of childhood and youth. An ardent Clemson fan, Herman bragged on his family member ties there and always enjoyed the Tiger - Gamecock banter.
