Lawrence (Hutch) Hutchings passed away suddenly and peacefully on May 12, 2012 in Canmore, Alberta. Hutch was a beloved husband, dad, grandad, teacher, friend, and owner of Second Story Books. He enjoyed participating in community theatre; seeking out treasured books; and contributing his perspective on local politics.
Hutch is survived by his wife Heath; sons Kris (Marianne) and Greg; granddaughter Maile; sister Lee (Ron); brother Stewart (Sharon); numerous nieces & nephews; and close friends. Hutch impacted many lives and will always be remembered for his generosity, quick wit and sense of humour.

"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge - myth is more potent than history - dreams are more powerful than facts - hope always triumphs over experience - laughter is the cure for grief - love is stronger than death."
