Marie Lynn Kutz, 50, of Springboro, passed away unexpectedly at her home on December 17, 2024. Born in Meadville, PA, on June 29, 1974, Marie was a loving wife, devoted mother, and friend to many.
She was married to Andy C. Kutz on July 25, 2014, and together they created a warm and welcoming home filled with laughter and love. Marie graduated from Conneaut Valley High School in 1993 and went on to dedicate 20 years of her working life to Hanes Erie, Inc. She was a familiar face there, known for her kindness and hard work.
A dedicated member of the Springboro Nazarene Church, Marie always put others before herself. She found joy in purse bingo and cherished every moment spent with her dogs and family. Her life was full of love, and she made sure those around her felt it every day.
Marie is survived by her loving husband Andy, three daughters: Kirsten M. (Kevin) Leahy of Ireland, Andrea L. Kutz (Bill LaBarr) of Schenectady, New York, and Jenna Kutz of Lawton, Oklahoma. She also leaves behind her son Kreo (Diana) Ehret of West Palm Beach, Florida, and two grandchildren, Natalie L. Gonzales and Fearann Adam Leahy. Marie’s brother, Gary E. Nichols Jr. of Erie, along with her nieces Teresa (Bradley) Peters, Kaitlyn (Josh) Sadler, and Macaila Nichols, will also miss her dearly.
Marie was preceded in death by her parents, Gary Eugene Nichols, Sr. and Catherine Pauline Stearns Nichols.

I was in Cosmetology with Marie in highschool. She always had a big smile and always made me laugh. She was a great friend. May the great memories she created bring a smile to your hearts.
Andy so sorry to hear about Marie. Prayers for you and your family.
Mama Marie was so loved and will always be loved! I will miss her forever and I will never let her be forgotten! I’m so sorry Andy I know she wasn’t just your wife she was your best friend.
My friend,
Love you forever. Betty Jo
Every person Marie met has made a huge impact to them. She’s outgoing, caring and overall loving. Marie always made sure I was never alone – that she was always a message or phone call away. Requesting to donate to the Anna Shelter is fitting when it comes to Marie – her passion for animals has always shines through.
I love you and miss you dearly.
I’m thinking about you, Andy with this difficult time. Just know I’m always here.
