Nicodemus Joseph Kutac, Jr., 90, passed away at his home in Houston, Thursday, February 5, 2015. He was born in Sweet Home, Texas to Nicodemus Kutac, Sr., and his wife, Agnes Malik Kutac.

He was educated at St. Joseph Catholic School in Yoakum, Texas where he was Salutatorian of his high school senior class in 1943. After serving in the U. S. Army in Germany during World War II, he enrolled at Texas A&M University in College Station. He married the former Dora Dean Koether from Yoakum in 1947.

He graduated from Texas A&M in just two years with highest honors, receiving his Bachelor of Science degree with Majors in Business Administration and Accounting in 1949. He was recruited from college by Standard Oil of Texas, and moved to Houston soon after. He became the head COBOL data programmer, specializing in financial programs. When Chevron bought Standard Oil, Kutac was promoted to Director of Payroll of Chevron's Geophysical division in Houston, a position he held until he retired from the company in 1982, after 33 years. He loved bowling, the Astros, the Aggies, and life itself.

He is preceded in death by Dora, his parents, and his brother, Joseph John Kutac. He is survived by Cherry Kutac, Carolyn Kutac Ohrt, and her husband, John Ohrt.

Viewing will be at Buffington Funeral Home in Shiner, Texas, until the Rosary is recited. Funeral mass will be at the Queen of Peace Catholic Church in Sweet Home, Texas, with burial following in the adjacent Church cemetery.
