HURLEY, WI - by Keri Singleton - Friday, January 8, 2010 - Congratulations to Lawrence Kutz and his family for thirty years of wonderful service to the community. Lawrence, Geri, and their children have provided exceptional nursing care to the community for thirty years. On hand Wednesday, Lawrence Kutz presented pins to members of his staff family who have had many years of continued service.

Workers, and their respective years of service were as follows: Joanne Peters; 17 years, Bob Barnabo Jr.; 22 years, Gloria Rowe; 19 years, Cathy Tanka; 15 years, Cathy Bertagnoli; 20 years, Cindy Levra; 21 years, Diana Swetkovich; 21 years, Lyla Reed; 27 years, Mary Jo Cain; 32 years, Donna Eiffola; 25 years, John Kutz; 29 years, Lauri Kutz; 27 years, and Lisa Jusula; 28 years.

The mood was festive as a band, The Ranch Boys, began to play old country classics, like Johnny Cash, with residents and guests being served cake in the dining room, while listening to old favorites.

We would like to congratulate Lawrence, Geri, their children, and all other dedicated workers, for their continued success, and wish them all many more wonderful years. The Kutz family is a pillar of the community, and have provided employment for many throughout the years, and will continue to do so, providing quality, skilled, competent care.
