Thomas A. Gutgsell
(1957 – 2023)
Tom passed away on Monday, August 28, 2023, in Dover.
Tom was born in Wilmington, Del., the son of Gerald Gutgsell and Betty Lou Cobb. He grew up in Camden before moving to Sandtown as a teen. Upon leaving High School he worked as an Auto Body Technician. He enjoyed fishing, building RC cars and collecting bald eagle statues and Harley-Davidson memorabilia. If there was an empty surface needing decoration, he would stick a Harley decal on it. He could strike up a conversation with anyone and come away with a new friend.
He is survived by his wife of 42 years, Allison (Boone) Gutgsell, daughter Katrina Gutgsell, sister Edith Gutgsell, brother Robert Gutgsell, nephew Gerald Gutgsell, cousin Judy Shields, all of Sandtown, as well as other family members all across the U.S.
