Dolores T. Hutton Obituary

Dolores T. Hutton, 90, of Manchester, CT passed away peacefully in her home (The Arbors of Hop Brook) on Wednesday March 25, 2020. Born Dolores Anne Taylor, on September 10, 1929, in Englewood, NJ, she was raised in the Bronx, NY. Dolores graduated from Walton H.S. (NYC) in 1947 and the Katherine Gibbs School in 1948. She also completed studies at Hunter College (NY) and the University of Connecticut (Stamford CT). She worked in NYC as an executive secretary for 10 years until her marriage to John Walter Hutton on July 11, 1959. Dolores made time to volunteer as a Sunday School Teacher and Hospital Red Cross “Gray Lady” in her younger days. Later, she was a devoted wife and mother that dedicated countless hours to school parent-teacher associations. She was also a creative and enthusiastic leader of Cub Scout Dens and Girl Scout Troops. Dolores was a tireless advocate for her children and took great pleasure in their accomplishments, as well as those of her many nieces and nephews. She loved travel and was delighted to achieve her lifetime goal of touring both the United States and Europe with her husband John. She seemed to find a personal connection with everyone she met, and could chat for hours over a cup of coffee, while simultaneously telling how shy she was. In addition to her husband, Dolores is predeceased by her sister Janet E. Taylor and her parents Gerald Taylor and Emily (Oertel) Taylor. She is survived by her loving children John William Hutton and his wife Kathleen of Winston-Salem, NC, James T. Hutton and his wife Susan of Tolland, CT, and Carolyn H. Durgin and her husband Rich of Hamilton, MT. She was a devoted grandmother to her 5 grandchildren Grace, Beatrix, J. Benjamin, John and William, and made every opportunity to be with them. The funeral and burial will be private, and no calling hours are being held due to the current pandemic situation. In lieu of flowers, Dolores’ family encourages friends and loved ones to donate to the Visiting Nurse Services of CT, the American Heart Association, and the American Kidney Fund.
