LAKE GEORGE- It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Larry Hutchinson, 73, on Monday, August 10th, 2026, a truly special and much loved member of the Old Post IRA.
Born on April 29, 1953 in Manhattan, he was the son of Nathanial and Evelyn (Moody) Hutchinson.
Larry had a personality all his own. He was spunky, well-liked, and had a way of making his presence known without needing many words. Those who were fortunate enough to know Larry quickly learned the little things that brought him happiness and made him uniquely Larry.
He loved music and found comfort in having his favorite ball and towel close by. He looked forward to his daily walks, where he could enjoy the fresh air, sunshine, and the familiar routine of getting out and about. He also loved sitting in his outdoor swing where he enjoyed the sounds of nature.
One of the highlights of Larry’s year was his annual boat cruise on beautiful Lake George. He looked forward to this special outing and, over the years, it became a cherished tradition and a wonderful source of memories for those who shared it with him.
He attended Queensbury Day Hab where he participated in activities that brought him comfort and joy, retiring in 2020. He especially loved cooking activities, feeding horses, and delivering bears to Hole in The Woods. Anyone who knew Larry knew how much he loved his Nilla cookies. Sometimes the simplest things brought the biggest smiles.
Larry shared a very special bond with the staff who supported and cared for him throughout his life. They were much more than caregivers - they were his family. They learned his routines, understood his ways, celebrated the things that made him happy, and cared for him with patience, compassion, and love. In return, he gave them countless memories, laughter, and a connection that will never be forgotten.
His life was filled with things that mattered the most to him: foot soaks, neighborhood walks, sunshine, sounds of nature, his ball and towel, boat rides on Lake George, and the familiar voices of the people he knew and trusted.
Larry was cared for, valued, and deeply loved. He will be greatly missed by everyone whose life he touched. His absence will be felt deeply, but the memories he leaves behind will remain with his family, friends and staff for years to come.
Friends may call from 11 am until Noon, Monday, August 17th, 2026 at the Densmore Funeral Home, Inc., 7 Sherman Ave., Corinth, with a celebration of Larry’s life to then be held at Noon, also at the funeral home.
His Committal Service will then be held at Evergreen Cemetery in Lake George.
Following the committal service, all are welcome to a reception at the Old Post IRA, 3 Old Post Road, Lake George.
