William Arthur Hutton Jr.

I first met Bill at our Submarine Veteran Base: Placoderm. He greeted me when I first joined the Base. He was so friendly and an Active member. Kathy and I offer our condolences to his Family. His service to our country is a Testament of his Patriotism. He is now with his our Brothers-of-the-Phin on Eternal Patrol. So I say "Sailor, rest your oars".

I met Bill at the Northwest Community Center. He always sat with us at lunch. Our table had a lot of fun playing bingo on Fridays. Bill was a nice person and I enjoyed visiting with him and listening to his stories.

I enjoyed Bill as member of the Placoderm Submarine Veterans. He helped start our local parade float using his trailer. That continues today and we still enjoy it. I thank Bill for his long time membership. Sailor rest your ors. Bob Kirby
