Arnie Hutchinson's 90th Birthday Celeb's
As a young man Arnie was parachuted into battle over the Rhine, Germany in 1944 . Fortunately he lived to tell the tale. Having just recently returned from the 70th remembrance anniversary in Arnheim our  hero celebrated his own 90th Birthday with a party for many of his friends at Walton Village Hall (His 2nd of 4 parties in different locations). Here, he is pictured at his party with Suzie his lovely Daughter-in-Law.                                        “Arnie we are incredibly proud to have you as a member of Walton Phoenix. To say we are amazed at your many talents and fantastic personality would be an understatement. What a lovely influential human being you are”                                         AWG-SWPAC-Chair Sept 2014
