Obituary for Michael Paul Hutchins Sr.

Michael P. Hutchins, Sr., 47, of Somerville, passed away unexpectedly from his injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident. He was born on January 1, 1975, in Damariscotta to Dennis R. Hutchins and Barbara Hicks Clifford.

Michael grew up in Portland and attended Portland High School in the Class of 1994. He moved to Jefferson and built his home and then moved to Somerville and began working with farm animals before beginning Hutchins Construction and then Hutchins Automotive. He was a jack of all trades.

Michael loved going to the local fairs, demo derby, tractor pulls, mud runs and eating dough boys. He enjoyed spending time with Sidney in the pit, watching him ride his dirt bike. He also enjoyed riding his motorcycle. He had farming in his blood, from the time he could reach the pedals on a tractor, at Clark Farms every summer. Michael liked going out for breakfast . He cared for animals, especially his many dogs, Lexi, Whiskey and Dodge. He was very proud of his son. Bonfires, garage nights with Sidney and his friends, grilling and cooking were special times for Michael.

Michael was a friend to all and was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need.

Michael is predeceased by his father, Dennis Hutchins, his grandparents Raymond and Jean Hutchins and his Uncle Dean Hutchins. He is survived by his mother and step-father Larry and Barbara Clifford of New Gloucester, his sons, Michael Hutchins, Jr. of Portland, Sidney Hutchins of Waldoboro, brothers D J Hutchins of Chelsea and Stephen Hicks of New Gloucester, maternal grandparents Robert Clark Sr. and Barbara Clark of Jefferson, and Samantha Flint and her 3 children of Somerville as well as many Aunts, Uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and many great friends.
