Eugene Hutley Obituary
Eugene (Gene) Francis Hutley
July 18, 1954 - December 22, 2023
Eugene (Gene) Francis Hutley, born on July 18, 1954, in Kansas City, Kansas, peacefully passed away on December 22, 2023, in Albany, Oregon. He was 69 years old.
Gene moved to Oregon in 1956, where he would later graduate with the last class of the original Corvallis High School in 1972. From August 1974 to March 2020, he ran his business, Gene's Antenna Services. In 1980, he married Christy Eeds, and together created a life and family filled with love. In March 2020, he was diagnosed with cancer. Through his fight, Gene continued to find joy in spending time with family, flying kites, working with his tractor, and spraying weeds.
Gene is survived by his family, including his wife Christy, daughter Nikki MacKinder, son Travis Hutley, and two grandchildren Ashlyn and Connor MacKinder. He is also fondly remembered by his siblings Jane Hutley, Dave Hutley, Pat Russell, and Donna Wells. He joins his loved ones who passed before him, including his grandparents and his parents Laurine (Rene) and Duane Hutley.
May he rest in peace, and may his memory live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
