BOYD HUTCHINSON 1926 - 2017 Peacefully, on Wednesday, July 5, 2017, Boyd Hutchinson passed away at Deer Lodge Centre, in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Boyd is survived by his ex-wife Stephanie Winnie Hutchinson, and children: Eric, Arnold, and Claire (Terry Porter and children Shelby and Dean). He is also survived by his children: Dale and Greg (Jessie) (by his ex-wife Natalie) and grandchildren: Neil and Paul. In addition, he leaves to mourn his passing his special companion, Eveleen Lawrence. He is predeceased by his ex-wife Natalie, his parents and two sisters, Gertrude and Phyllis. He also has a brother Bill who resides in England. Boyd was born in Swift Current, Saskatchewan on August 13, 1926. He was the son of Mahlon and Olive Hutchinson. Boyd picked up golf at a young age at the Elmwood Golf Club and won the Junior Club Championship in 1940 to 1941. But the Second World War intervened and he joined the navy, where he achieved the rank of Master Warrant Officer. He retired from the Navy after 25 years and worked for Canada Post for 18 years until his retirement. Boyd's passion was golfing and he won many trophies. Being in the Navy he played many of the top golf courses in the world including the Old Course at St. Andrews. He also liked reading, movies and travelling with his companion, Eveleen. He was an excellent snooker player and bowled regularly. Boyd was a dedicated member of the Royal Canadian Legion for 48 years, a member of the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans in Canada for 40 years, and a member of Teulon Golf and Country Club for 35 years. We thank the staff and nurses at the Deer Lodge Centre and the Health Sciences Centre, as well as Boyd's son, Eric, and Boyd's partner, Eveleen Lawrence, for taking care of Boyd in his final years. A private military funeral service will be held for immediate family. Donations in Boyd's memory may be made to The Kidney Foundation of Canada.
