McDONOUGH – Edward E. Hatton, 58, long-time resident of McDonough, passed away earlier this year in the Town of Columbus.
Born in Pennsylvania on Aug. 2, 1948, Edward lived most of his life in McDonough with his sister, Pauline MacLaury, and worked for many years at the CWS in Norwich. He liked to hunt and fish, and to go camping. In his earlier years, Edward had enjoyed trapping, and had been a member of the McDonough Grange 1301 and Del-Se-Nango. One of his favorite things was to sit on the back porch, listening to country music and drinking coffee.

Edward was predeceased by his father, Edward C. Hatton.
