I knew Hutch when I worked at Clarica back in the nineties. He always treated everyone equally and greeted us all with a smile on his face and a “hello”. My condolences to his family and friends. - Posted by: Rob Keaveney (Friend) on: Dec 11, 2024

Reg and I knew "Hutch" for many years, along with Nancy. He was always cheerful and was a good friend. His last years were nowhere close to the fellow we knew and loved but we also understood that the illness was causing it and not his reality. He is at peace, and will always be remembered fondly.

Hutch was such a good friend and was always fun to be with. He was devastated to lose Nancy so it was wonderful that he found Marilyn. They had a lovely relationship that survived Hutch’s developing Alzheimer’s. We are grateful to Marilyn for loving our friend. Our condolences to all who loved him. - Posted by: Barb & Stan Hutton (Friends) on: Dec 09, 2024

Met Hutch several times through my good friend Marilyn many many years ago. They were great together and Hutch was always the perfect gentleman and soft spoken. Hutch acquired a lot of very good friends. It was sad to see him as Alzheimer’s was slowly taking him away. Now he’s resting in piece where he should be and I know he took a piece of Marilyn’s heart with him. RIP Hutch you and always will be missed. Heavenly hugs from the Air Canada gals. ❤️ - Posted by: Linda Pelletier (Acquaintance) on: Dec 07, 2024
