Send Condolence

Jane A. Hutt passed away February 1st, 2023 after a long and heroic battle with breast cancer.
She will be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grammy, and friend. Born Jane Ann Bucklew
in Columbus, Ohio on March 26, 1950, she was the daughter of Lewis V. and Isabelle A.
Bucklew. Jane lived most of her adult life in Olympia, Washington.
 
Jane graduated from the University of Hawaii, Manoa, with a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism,
working as a marketing professional, and was the founding webmaster for the International
Generator Technical Community (IGTC) forum for utility-class power generators, which now
reaches over 5000 members in 124 countries. She was Chair of the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Turbine Generator and Auxiliaries committee, Chair of their
Public Affairs Committee and of the Prime Movers Awards Committee. She also served as the
Secretary of the local Puget Sound chapter.
Jane received the ASME Dedicated Service Award as well as the GUG (Generator Users
Group) Maughan Award earned by industry professionals who have demonstrated excellence
throughout their careers in this field.
 
Jane’s diverse interests spanned the arts, literature, science, history, genealogy, travel and
mathematics. Her family and friends marveled at her ability to command knowledge on such a
vast array of topics. She shared her culinary expertise with delectable cakes, baked goods and
gourmet dishes from around the world. Jane was a passionate music lover, participating in the
church choir at the First United Methodist Church of Olympia, Washington, as well as
community vocal and instrumental groups. She was generous with her talents, using her
musical knowledge and skill to entice others to broaden their horizons, often giving impromptu
mandolin and voice recitals. Her love of music began when she was a child and always
remained an integral part of her life.
 
In addition to her parents, Jane is predeceased in death by her grandparents, Virgil and Virgie
Bucklew, of Coshocton, Ohio and Joseph and Susie Antol of Canton, Ohio, as well as many
aunts and uncles. She is survived by beloved husband, Paul Hutt, cherished daughters,
Yoanna Betsacon (Kevin Mason) and Maria Webster (Michael) all of Olympia, Washington, her
adored grandchildren, Kallista, Tessa, Cole, Aaron, and Maximus and treasured sisters and
brothers, Ginny Barkman of Chase, British Columbia, Canada, Jennifer Schwarz (Peter) of
Lewisville, North Carolina, Daniel Bucklew (Patricia), David Bucklew (Carole) both of
Columbus, Ohio, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
 
Jane will be remembered as a laughing, free-spirited, loving person. She persevered through
several bouts of breast cancer, but did not dwell on it. Instead, Jane showed gratitude for her
special time with family and friends.
 
Those wishing to make a contribution in Jane’s memory are encouraged to consider the music
ministries of her church, to help carry on her passion.

Jane and I were happy together and in love as a young married couple. We grew apart over the years and divorced 30 years ago. She made a new life for herself and found forever love with Paul Hutt. I'm so sorry, Paul for your loss. The Lord blessed Jane and me with two wonderful daughters, Yoanna and Maria, who have grown into beautiful, loving women. Thank you, Paul, for treating Yoanna and Maria with love and affection as if they were your own. Jane loved our daughters and their children with the deepest feeling that showed in everything she did for them throughout their lives to this point. She will continue to watch over them from Heaven's lofty perch where she resides as one of God's newest angels. Proverbs 31 starting at verse 10 describes a woman "of noble character, worth far more than rubies, who fears the Lord and surpasses all other women" and "a woman of valor, strength, and selflessness," with various skills and abilities in manual, commercial, administrative, and interpersonal domains. That's Jane. My deepest and most sincere sympathies to Paul, my daughters and grandchildren, and Jane's brothers and sisters, Ginny, Jennifer, Daniel and David and their families. Thinking about and praying for you all.

Jane was a very dear friend of mine for close to 40 years. We both loved music, bird watching, and working on our computers. I will miss her so much. I could not have asked for a better friend. My heart goes out to her family, especially her girls and grandchildren. She gave as much as she could to all of us. Sending you all a big hug. Paul, take care of yourself and know that you too are in my thoughts. Just Deb
