Larry C. Shutt, 74, of Mansfield, passed away Sunday evening, January 8, 2017, at OhioHealth Mansfield Hospital. He was born March 28, 1942, in Mansfield, Ohio, to the late Olen Shutt and Leeta Walters Shutt.

Larry worked at various auto body repair shops in Mansfield before owning and operating Shutt's Body Shop from 1975-1980. Following this, he was offered a position as senior auto body teacher at Madison Comprehensive High School where he taught until retiring in 2002.
