Hugh Seward Hirtle

I remember spending fun times with Hugh at Road Rallyes. Always such a gentile happy man.

I will always remember Hugh's extraordinary talent and kindness. He was a gift to the world.

Hugh was a legend to all of us who knew him. His work, friendship and personality will be missed by many....I remember times with him, and am lucky enough to have a few of his paintings. My thoughts go out to his family and close friends.

I just happened to purchase a print of his EAGLE today for a dear friend and patriot. I went online to learn about the artist and found this tribute. Thank you for leaving us this beautiful legacy. Prayers for his friends and family.

He was a good friend and golf partner to my Dad, Bill, who was so sorry to hear of Hugh's passing. May he rest in peace and play great golf in heaven!

One of my earliest memories was sitting and watching my father draw characters and logos for cereal boxes. Over the ensuing years I have met and done business with many, many people that consider themselves artists. For me only a handful of had real artistic talent like my dad and some of his friends, Hugh was at the top of that group. I loved talking to Hugh about art, telling tall tales, life in general. He definitely showed some artist talent in his storytelling as well! Glad to have...

We will miss Hugh, he was a good friend and always an inspiration.
