Michael lived most of his life in Baker City; he attended the Baker City Christian School along with his siblings, cousins, and many friends. The family moved to Idaho for a while, then coming back to Baker City, where he enjoyed ﬁ shing with his brothers and family camp- ing trips. Michael enjoyed Sunday afternoon family days when the family would all load up after church with friends and head to the A&W for lunch, root beer fl oats and lots of laughter, returning home to watch movies or playing games, while dad would fall asleep in the chair and mom watching the kids play. Michael was very talent- ed at making techno music on his dj system on his computer and spent hours making it sound just right. He was hoping to make his music for some new video games.

Lutz Juergen Kethler Baker City, 1936-2016 Lutz Juergen Kethler was born and raised in the town of Braunlage - which lies within the Harz moun- tain range Lutz Kethler in Lower Saxony, Ger- many. During this period of his life, Lutz honed his athletic ability and compet- itive personality to become a champion ski jumper and tennis player. In 1955 Lutz made the journey to Ellis Island to pursue his life-long dream of becoming a U.S. Citi- zen. During his lifetime, he served in both the U.S. Air Force as well as Army National Guard. In 1962 he was accepted to UC Davis, where he played tennis and in 1966 earned his Bachelors of Science degree – Majoring in Biology. After teach- ing high school science for nearly a decade, he changed careers and in 1977 earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from WSU College of Veterinary Medicine. Always up for an adven- ture, Lutz’s enthusiasm for volunteering, exotic animals, veterinary medi- cine and travel took him to multiple continents for various wildlife research projects. Lutz’s passions in- cluded: his trees, watching movies, the opera, pastries and always being on-the- go. The happiest times were when he was with his daughters and many friends he made throughout his very full life. DaDa, your love will be in our hearts & minds forever. He had a heart of gold and will live on through all that knew him. Those who would like to send condo- lences, please feel free to contact Paula at phoyt@ mettel.net or 415-342- 8460.
