Raymond Abbott Hitchcock, 86, passed away peacefully at his home at 41 Irish Lane in Rutland on Tuesday, Dec. 26, 2006.

His wife of 56 years, Colleen S. (Vigue) Hitchcock, died in 2000.

He leaves his beloved son Peter S. Hitchcock and his caring wife Joyce of Rutland with whom he lived, and his joyful 6 year old granddaughter Rachel C. Hitchcock who affectionately called him "Dadda", his wife's relatives in Maine, and his daughter-in-law's relatives in Worcester.

Mr. Hitchcock was a mechanical adjuster at Worcester Envelope where he worked for 10 years, retiring in 1985. Previously, he worked at U.S. Envelope in Worcester for 32 years.

He graduated from Worcester Boys Trade School in 1940 and served his country during WWII, with the Navy "Seabees". He was a member of the Lakeview Congregational Church in Worcester and attended regularly with his granddaughter.

Raymond enjoyed boating, fishing, yardwork and spending time with his granddaughter Rachel. He attended the lunch program at the Rutland Senior Center daily. A special treat was the hospitality offered at his daughter-in-law's parent's home, George and Antoinette Arraj, Sr. of Worcester.

Born in Worcester, he was the son of Charles E. and Laura P. (Abbott) Hitchcock.
