Dedicated to the Hutchison Family
— Theodore Martin Hutchison — Betty Sloan Hutchison —
The Hutchison family's roots run deep in Kansas. Both Ted and Betty were born near Huron, Kansas where their parents and grandparents lived before them. Ted and Betty married in 1938 and after farming east of Everest during the early 1940's, they moved to Everest with their three young children, Sharon, Tom and Peggy. Life on the farm had been good for the family but Ted decided to participate in a different way in the economic growth that had begun following the war. He owned and operated the Hutchison Implement Company from 1949 to 1962 and in 1956 was awarded an "Appreciation Day" by Allis-Chalmers Corporation for Hutchison Implements 1955 sales achievement. The entire community was invited to celebrate the event - more than 2,800 were treated to a barbeque pork and beef lunch on main street while the Everest High School Band entertainment. Betty was a book-keeper and Ted's number one cheerleader as he developed the business and the best Mom a child could hope for according to their children.| HM Number | HM1H87 |
