Charles D. Utt Dies in Greece
The death in Athens, Greece, of Prof. Charles Daniel Utt, 76, of Mountain View, Calif., father of Dr. Walter Utt, chairman of Pacific Union College history department, was learned here this week.
Prof. Utt on a tour of southern Europe had planned to meet his son. Walter, in Geneva, Switzerland. Dr. Walter Utt had left Angwin at the International Airport, San Francisco, on March 23, for six months of additional study and research on Waldensian Christianity and looked forward to meeting his father before getting into his study program.
He met [sic] plans for two days in Geneva before getting word that the father had suffered a stroke in Athens and was under care in a hospital there. Death came before he could reach him.
Funeral arrangements at Mountain View are pending the arrival of the body of the deceased by air from Greece later this week. He will be buried beside his late wife, Miriam, who predeceased him in 1964.
Prof. Utt is survived by five sons: Theodore, a medical doctor of Portand, Oregon; Merrill, a dentist of Roseville, Calif; Harold, a dentist in Fontana, Calif, ; Walter, of Angwin, and Richard, book editor of the Pacific Press Publishing Assn., Mountain View, Calif.
Charles Daniel Utt was born in Raton, N. Mexico, August 3, 1892. He graduated from the PUC Prep School in 1913, and received his B.A. from the Angwin College in 1917. He later earned an M.A. in English from Boston University in 1928; and spent two additional years in graduate study at the University of California, Berkeley. He also attended Emerson College of Oratory at Boston for a summer.
Prof. Utt taught Latin and Greek at Pacific Union College from 1919 to 1922, and returned to his alma mater in 1938 to spend the next 11 years as associate professor of journalism.
From 1922 to 1932 Prof. Utt served Atlantic Union College, another Seventh-day Adventist institution at South Lancaster, Mass., variously as professor of Latin, Greek, and English, and also as registrar and librarian.
