I was a resident at montefiore
with Hugh and we kept in touch for many years after.He was always a fine gentleman,talented dedicated surgeon and a pure pleasure to meet and talk to. I certainly
can be sure that he will be acutely missed by his family and friends.

A life well lived and shared with many, a gift for those who knew him. Hugh left a beautiful, caring and exceptional wife and family with memories to treasure. .
