Indalecio “Tito” Gutierrez, Jr., was an Army Veteran of 30 years of service. He was a great and outstanding baseball player as a little boy into adulthood. He loved playing his guitar until bedtime and playing music. Tito was also a track and cross country star athlete. Even in the military, he was the fastest and best runner. He loved life to the fullest, and he will be dearly missed. He had a bubbly personality, was fun to be around, and was a joker. He always made you laugh, was always happy, and gave great advice. He will be missed and will be in our hearts and prayers, until we meet again in Eternal Life, “Sarge”. We love you!

In accordance with the family’s wishes, a private cremation will be taking place. Rendina Funeral Home, 5100 Cleveland Street, Gary, IN 46408, has been entrusted with Indalecio’s cremation arrangements.
