A "confirmed bachelor," Nutt, 78, was born to Frank and Ella Nutt, who farmed in Geneseo Township near Hickory Hills Park. He had one brother, the late Frank Nutt, and two sisters: Mrs. Oscar Anderson of Geneseo Township, and Mrs. Henry Peters of La Porte City. After graduating from eighth grade at the Geneseo school, Nutt decided he would join his family's farming operation that included beans, corn, and livestock. But Nutt's farming was just the quiet side of his life. During his free time, he was busy pulling off fantastic stunts, boxing, or hunting and enjoying the outdoors. Nutt became known throughout the area for his motorcycle stunts, which included biking while juggling or biking while standing on his head on the motorcycle's seat. He was also caught once hanging by the vane from a windmill, and even made one of the area's first snowmobiles out of a propeller and an old motorcycle engine. Nutt was also a professional boxer and performed throughout northeast Iowa. He said he had about 100 bantamweight bouts during his career. Airplanes are another fascination for Nutt. He has even tried his hand at "wing walking," walking along the plane's wing while in midair. Throughout his "stunt" and boxing career, Nutt says he was never injured seriously, but last June during one of his motorcycle jaunts, he hit a rough spot and suffered several broken bones. He has been recuperating at Sunnycrest and will be returning home sometime in the near future. He keeps himself busy at Sunnycrest with visiting and Bingo, and still is up very early each day for his morning mile walk around the neighborhood! OBITUARY, NEWSPAPER DATED 11 JANY. 1993 John C.
