Gordon Hutcheson

Gordon Churchill Hutcheson

In his 93rd year, born in Brewers Mills, ON, to Clarence and Jennie (Churchill) Hutcheson, died in Almonte, ON at the Rosamond on February 21, 2025. Devoted husband to Norma Eleanor (Wilson) for over 71 years. Caring father of Scott (Cheryl) and sister Kelly, grandfather of Jenna (Ciaran), and sister Alanna, and great-grandfather of Sloan. Predeceased by his sister Gwen and her husband Gerald Kenny, his sister Mabel Stirling (Colin - deceased) and extended family.

Gordon was a life long learner, and retired from the Ottawa Citizen after 41 years. He loved living by the lake, construction projects, observing wildlife behavior, telling stories, having good arguments about current events (taking both sides), corresponding by email for several years (and saving every one!), listening to Bob Dylan, and last but not least, spending time with family and friends.

We wish to thank our community for many acts of kindness and compassion. Sincere thanks also to the Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital staff, and those working at the Rosamond Wing of the Almonte General Hospital for their wonderful care. 

We plan to have a memorial service for the family later this year. Cremation has already taken place.  

If you wish, you can donation to the Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital, the Almonte General Hospital  Fairview Manor Foundation (Rosamond Wing) or a charity of your choice.
