Condolences & Memories (13 entries)

• I ran for the NDP in 1979 and 1980 and one of the reasons why was because Bill Hutton supported my candidacy. I remember his daughter Jocelyn as she went through her illness. Bill was a good friend and supporter. - Posted by: grant wichenko (friend) on: Sep 23, 2022

• I first met Bill in 1968 when I had an interest in student council at Churchill High School. He was the adviser and I went to talk to him. It was like having a tiger by the tail from then on, as he introduced me to the mission and possibilities of student council, and then on to progressive social values. He ran in the federal election later that year and I worked on his campaign. This was my introduction to the NDP, Tommy Douglas, and to the importance of working for social change through politics. Fifty-four years later, I found myself speaking last night at the nomination of our local candidate in our provicial constituency. Knowing Bill was a challenging, eye-opening experience that has had a huge impact on my life, and the lives of many other Churchill High students. We can certainly celebrate a life well lived. - Posted by: Gene Degen (Friend) on: Jun 21, 2022

• I met Bill 22 years ago at St Michael and All Angels parish Winnipeg for Easter Vigil. He is a kind man with a heart of encouragement for others, especially younger clergy. Enjoying friendship relationships, we experienced a few dinner parties, where he delighted in conversation. I remember with joy an evening out at Jean-Mary Shepherd’s, where at the end of the evening he said “I know you well enough to ask you for a ride home.” It was our delight. + Rest eternal dear disciple. May you rise in glory. In Christ, + Geoffrey - Posted by: Geoffrey Woodcroft (Colleague) on: Jun 14, 2022
