Obituary for Aimee (Woodruff) Hutchins Baizley

Cambridge - Aimee (Woodruff) Hutchins Baizley, 92, passed away on Wednesday, September 22, 2021 at Franklin County Health Rehab in St. Albans. She was born in Jericho, Vermont on June 18, 1929 daughter of the late George Woodruff and Eva (Terril) Woodruff. Aimee attended Jericho schools and UVM. At a dance at the Chicken Coop dance hall in Underhill Center, Aimee met a handsome soldier, named Roy Hutchins, who she would marry on October 4, 1947. She moved to Roy’s farm in Pleasant Valley where they raised their four children. Aimee was a farmer’s wife while at the same time serving on the Cambridge School Board and running her family’s maple sugar and candy business, Browns River Maple products, with her brother-in-law and close friend Bill Bister. Roy passed away in 1984. Aimee stayed on the farm where she would walk every morning “around the block”. One day she was joined in her walk by a gentleman named Ken Baizley from Maine who was visiting his son in the Valley. A romance transpired and they were married in 1988. Ken and Aimee divided their time between Pleasant Valley and Spring Hill, Florida. In later years they moved to Gazebo apartments in South Burlington where Ken passed away in 2015. Aimee later moved to Franklin County Health and Rehab in Saint Albans. Aimee will be remembered by her family and friends as always having a smile on her face. She was an avid gardener, played the organ at the Cambridge Congregational church, made the best apple cream pies and baked beans, and worked for many years at the Cambridge Town Clerk’s office.

Aimee is survived by her four children and their families: Frank O. Hutchins (Donna), their daughter Ellie Hull (Troy) and their children Drake and Haley; Amy Curry (John) their children Ethan and Jenna; Frank Hutchins, Jr. (Heather) and their children Chase and Skylar; Alicia Hutchins (Bill Connell) and their daughter Joannie; George W. Hutchins, (Nancy) their children Roy Hutchins (Trista), their children Owen and Emily; G. Michael Hutchins (Kim); Bruce T. Hutchins, (Jeanne) children Jennifer Smithers (Gregory) and their daughter Grace; Jonathan Hutchins (Christine) and their child James; Nicholas Jabour (Nikki ) their son Kalamack; Michael Jabour (Alissa); daughter Kathy M. Hutchins (George B. Potter); several nieces, nephews and cousins, and special friend, Janet Smithers. Aimee was predeceased by her sisters Norma Woodruff and Joyce Bister.

The family would like to thank the staff at Franklin County Health and Rehab for the care and friendship they gave Aimee and the entire family especially during Covid when they would every weekday at 1:30 help Aimee to skype with her children.
