She was born March 27, 1930, in Bloomfield to Haden and Eula McElhinney Craig. She graduated from high school in 1948 and married Harold Utt later that year on August 26, at the First Baptist Church in Bloomfield. She attended Iowa State Teacher’s College and taught in a rural school for a few years. The couple purchased the family farm in 1957 and raised three children; Susan, Gary, and Jimmie. Many happy memories were created on the farm over the years and Martha cherished the time she had with her family. Harold and her (along with help from the kids) farmed together, raised livestock, and milked cows. Harold passed on May 8, 1985. Martha spent many happy years chasing after grandchildren and attending all their events including baseball, softball, football, basketball, tennis, show choir, and livestock shows at the fair. Martha was also an active member of the community. She was a member of the Bloomfield United Methodist Church, participated on a bowling team, and even joined a quilting group for the social aspects. She was famous for her chocolate chip cookies and her fried chicken. After the beef show at the Davis County Fair, she would always make fried chicken for everyone – a tradition that lasted for over 40 years. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
