Grandpa Eddie



Edmon Carver Hutchison, 81, died peacefully in his sleep on Sunday, February 9, 2014 at Logan Nursing Rehabilitation Center.  Ed was born December 8 1932 to Edmon Dewy and Verna Carver Hutchison in Richmond, Utah, the youngest of four children.

Ed attended cache county schools, graduating from Logan High School in 1951.  He then attended Utah State University before going to work at the family business, Gilt Edge Flour Mills in Richmond.  He was a member of The Association of Operative Millers.

Ed married Audrey Jane Griffin December 28, 1953.  They raised three children, Kim, Sally and Ned in Logan and North Logan.

Ed loved to golf and was a member of the Logan Golf and Country Club for a number of years.  He also enjoyed hunting and fishing and was a member of the Round Valley Hunting Club. 
Ed was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, residing in the North Logan 12th Ward.

Ed was preceded in death by his parents, sister, Ruth Ryan, brother, Robert Hutchison, and son, W. Kim Hutchison.  He is survived by his wife, Audrey, daughter-in-law Lynette, daughter, Sally (Brooks) Tarbet, and son, Ned (Sherri) Hutchison, nine grandchildren, Tami (Brent) Suisse, Julie (Blake) Ballard, Kara (Phil) Foster, Eddie (Michelle) Hutchison, Kade (Jessica) Tarbet, Andy (Mallory) Hutchison, Kelsey (Brady) Bobka, Shanna Hutchison, and Blake Hutchison, 20 great-grandchildren, and sister Colleen Croxford.

There will be a viewing Tuesday, February 11, 6-7:30 at Neslon Funeral Home, 162 East 400 North, Logan.  Graveside services will be held Wednesday, February 12 at noon at the Logan Cemetery.

Grandpa did not want a funeral, in fact, he wanted to be cremated, but Grandma said no.  The viewing for friends and neighbors was closed-casket, but before we headed to cemetery on Wednesday, we opened the casket so all the family could say goodbye. 

We had family prayer, offered by Kade, then at the cemetery, Andy offered an opening prayer, the bishop made a few remarks and then Eddie dedicated the grave.

GiveAway!!

I'm doing this giveaway just for fun. I'm not trying to sell or promote anything. I'm on an apron kick lately. I've come across so many cute ideas and I decided to make some of them. A week or so ago my good friend Liz mentioned she'd won an apron in a giveaway somewhere else. Thats where my "inspiration" comes from. I'm just a big copycat, but at least I admit to it. Here is the giveaway item: Please keep in mind that I made this, it did not come from a store so if you become the owner there will be no tags. I consider it to be a one-size-fits-all due to the fact that the ties are extra long. Here are the details: *Contest begins at 7am (Mountain Standard time) Thursday, November 12. It will end Sunday, November 15 at 8pm (same timezone). Winner(s) will be posted at my convenience on Monday. *Anyone living in the continental U.S., Canada, including PEI, or Mexico can enter this giveaway. It doesn't matter if you and I are friend or foe. You don...

Parade

Brittany decided to join the marching band this year. She plays the marimba. The band participates in a lot of parades and marched in the River Heights parade last Saturday. I thought Maya would enjoy the parade so she and I went and watched Brittany. Since the pit section cannot march with their instruments, they hold the shields and march in front of the rest of the band. Brittany is the last on on the right, holding the "T".

New House

We are building a new house!  This project has been in the works for a long time and we chose to keep it a secret until "Dig Day" because of how frustrating the process has been.  We began this adventure in February 2013 when we found the "lot of our dreams".  This piece of land was perfect.  Perfect location (in Providence), perfect size (0.96 acre), perfect orientation (house will face west).   The development process was long and difficult.  Providence City is not easy to work with.  Their requirements are extensive and often times ridiculous and unnecessary.  We've jumped through all kinds of hoops to get to where we are. We are building with Mt. Sterling Custom Homes.  They have a great reputation for designing and building high quality homes.  I had found a house plan that I really liked, had done some tweaking myself, then took it in to Mt. Sterling's designer to have it smoothed out and fix some areas that weren't q...
