William Hutchison

September 21, 2011

Dear Hicksons: I would like to express the sincere condolences once again from the Hutchison family in Toronto, Canada. Bill Hickson was a wartime pilot of our late father, Alan Hutchison and they maintained some contact in later years and visited us here in Toronto and also hosted myself and my parents in New Zealand at different times. I remember Bill as a great and kind fellow with lots of interest for the major road trips my father had planned for them. Always out on a mission with a map! We express our heartfelt thoughts to Kathy and your family at this difficult time. A donation has been made to the Child Cancer Foundation in Bill's memory.
