He was a member of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers Union for over 40 years. He was also an auto mechanic trained at North High School.l Hugh enjoyed life to the fullest. Fixing things was his passion, he loved a challenge. If something was unfixable, he would fix it.
