He started by implementing woodland conservation practices in Vermont, and then was sent to fight forest fires in Warrenton, Oregon. He was a World War II veteran. After graduating from the School of Aviation Medicine at Wendover Field in Utah, he went on to serve as a flight surgeon’s assistant in San Antonio, Texas. A born-again Christian, he was a charter member of Calvary Baptist Church in Hyannis. He leaves Janice L. (Cash) Hutchins, his wife of 57 years; his seven children, David R. Hutchins of Falmouth, Patricia M. King of Chicopee, Susan M. Hutchins of Mashpee, the Reverend Peter R. Hutchins of Laconia, New Hampshire, the Reverend Paul W. Hutchins of Bondurant, Iowa, Kathy L. Newton of Sandwich, and John J. Hutchins of Marstons Mills; 19 grandchildren: and six great-grandchildren. He also leaves his sister, Edith Irwin of Ware.
