Hutch graduated from Melbourne High School in 1961, then went on to National College of Chiropractic in Chicago, earning a degree in Doctor of Chiropractic. Hutch went into practice in Melbourne with his father Bo “Bud” to many. Bo and Hutch had a very wonderful working relationship that lasted for many years until Bo’s retirement. Hutch truly loved his patients and being a chiropractor. Many great jokes, laughs and friendships were shared at the office. An adjustment on the tailgate after hunting with his buddies was always a part of his love of chiropractic’s too. Hutch retired after 47 years of a very successful and fulfilling practice. In retirement, Hutch spent many fun-filled days at The Grant Hunting Camp, riding in the Grant woods on his Arctic Cat buggy and meeting up with his “Mug Club” friends at The Old Fish House in Grant.
Hutch especially loved fishing and hunting. He was great at both! He also had a great admiration for guns and knives and was very knowledgeable on both of those topics. He loved the southern heritage and his favorite place on earth was The Grant Hunting Camp. His friendships from there became an extended part of family to Hutch. He was also very fond of his beloved dog Millie.
Hutch was a member of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Melbourne.
