Hugh S. Ferguson

The contacts that Bonnie and I had with Hugh were brief when taken in the light of his long life and vast interests. They were, however, memorable and we wish there could be more. We voyaged with him to and among the Aleutians and Commander Islands with Zodiac trips ashore and subsequently enjoyed some lunches with him in Bellevue and La Conner. His delightful humor blended with his wide experience and interests made any visit pass too quickly. Memories of him will persist for us.

Ellen,

Clare and I were in Mexico when we heard of your dads passing. We signed the quest book but Bonney Watson said it never arrived.
So many memories. Our horseback trips in the mountains with my dad, your dad, Les, and others, Garden parties, to name but a few.
We were both lucky to have had such great dads.
You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,

Cappy and Clare

Hugh was a good friend and lunch companion. He was not one to boast but it should be known that he supported a Peace Corps project that brought Central European Students to the PNW to meet innovative US busineses.

My thoughts are with Ellen, and Kamuda Kali. I hope that our son Hugh, age 5, and daughter Jane, age 9, approach their lives with the spirit of adventure, love of learning and care for people and the world that your dad Hugh so clearly overflowed with. Peace to you both.

I had the privilege and honor of working with Hugh on many buildings in the Seattle area. His generousity only was exceeded by his character and his sense of humor His ability to sit at lunch and figure a building and write a contract on a napkin was uncanny.

I want the family to know that I have a deep respect for Hugh and will miss him along with the people of Seattle.

You were a very generous man indeed and changed many lives for the better. May the life you lived be celebrated and rejoiced. My prayers go to your family. <3's mr. ferguson

Your kindness and terrific sense of humor will be missed by many, but memories of you will last forever!
