I was deeply saddened when I heard about Hugh. His leaving is far too early. I have so many great memories from the old Sims Security days. I can't count the number of times Hubie saved the day. He was an excellent employee and a better friend. He will be deeply missed. My heart goes out to Arleen, Glenda and his family. Be strong and remember happy times. He's a good man.

We had the opportunity to get to know Hugh when my husband coached his son in hockey this past winter. What a devoted father and lover of all sports. Our prayers are with the entire Boyd family and extra prayers go out to Hugh and Kristin's children. May the Lord comfort you in this great loss.
