With his family by his side, Callum Hutton passed away peacefully on November 12, 2023. He will be lovingly remembered and missed immensely by his wife of 40 years, Lee Fraser; his children Greg (Stephanie), Jeff (Lauren), and Jamie; his beloved grandchildren Jeremy, Emma, Maëlle, and Beau; his siblings Heather Begin (Paul) and Ian (Laura); and numerous extended family members.
Cal was born in North Vancouver on December 23, 1957, where his passion for sports and the outdoors began. He was an avid skier, mountaineer, golfer, and baseball player. Cal met the love of his life, Lee, on holiday in Hawaii in 1980, and they married in 1983. He joined the RCMP in 1980 and began his 27-year career in Alberta, where he and Lee started their family and made lifelong friends. Cal was heavily involved in sports and coaching with all his children and, his grandchildren. He transferred to the Richmond RCMP Detachment in 1997 and worked there until retirement. He found his happy place at Kings Links, where he enjoyed golfing and spending time with his many friends.
Cal loved to travel and visited Australia, Europe, Hong Kong, India, Mexico, and more. He had a great sense of humour which was shown by his unflinching support of the Vancouver Canucks. He was also a lifelong BC Lions fan. Cal’s greatest love and joys included his family, golf, baseball, and especially being a loving dad and grampa. So many relatives and friends will miss Cal dearly.
