The family and friends of Jack W. Hutton celebrate his life and mourn his passing at 90 years old.

His integrity, independence, strength and wisdom defined him as a family man and business owner.

He was a well respected and knowledgeable water well driller for seven decades.

His passions included mule deer and elk hunting, reliving and sharing those experiences and memories with all he met, as well as creating memories for “Hutton’s Hideaway” in Pt. Arena, Calif.

Prior to settling in Lake County, Calif., he was a World War II Navy veteran who served in the Pacific Theater and a semi pro baseball player.

In Jack’s personal and professional life he was always the most unselfish, honest and positive role model.

Jack is preceded in death by his wife of 43 years, Ellie, and his twin brother Jerry.

Surviving family who honor his legacy are Cheryl (Hendricks) Renfro and husband Fred; Kathy (Hendricks) Andrews and husband Mark; Jim Hendricks and wife Colleen; Matthew Hutton and wife Lisa; nieces Tina and Karen Hutton; eight grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.

To honor his wishes there will be no services.

Memorial contributions may be made to the charity of your choice.
