At Brockville General Hospital Garden Street, Hugh passed away peacefully on Monday August 2, 2010 in his 72nd. year.

He leaves behind his loving wife, Doreen Malone, and her family, a step brother Irvine Steeves as well as many relatives and friends in Ontario and the Maritimes. He also leaves behind many close friends from his life-long passion and career in the agricultural business both here in Canada as well as in Europe, Russia and Africa where he shared his love for improving the quality of life for farmers and their dairy herds.
