Gloria was born in Lowell, Massachusetts on June 1, 1952, and was the daughter of the late Ernest and Marjorie (Johnston) Hutchinson.
For many years, she was employed as an inspector for Teradyne of Nashua.
In her free time she enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, along with watching her granddaughters dance, play sports, or any activities that they enjoyed. She loved being part of their lives. She loved taking drives to the beach with her life partner Larry and loved just hanging out with her friends and drinking Dunkins. Gloria enjoyed face-timing with her granddaughters, and enjoyed reading and sitting outside. Gloria’s love of animals was apparent as she was the neighborhood animal watcher and would watch them lovingly. Her neighbors always knew their beloved pets were well taken care of. Gloria is survived by her two children, Raymond Bakunas of Pepperell, MA and Christine Mackensen and her husband Chris of Temple N.H.; her four grandchildren, Adeline, Chloe, Gary, and Rosalie. She is also survived by her sister Claire Michelinie and her husband Don of Orange, VA and her longtime companion, Larry Bennett of Nashua.
Relatives and friends are invited to Gloria’s visitation on THURSDAY, January 6th from 4 until 7 PM at ROCHETTE FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATION SERVICES, 21 Kinsley Street, Nashua. Her funeral service will take place in the Funeral Home during the visitation time at 6:30 PM.
