Hugh Beattie

Oct 15th, 1953 - Jun 11th, 2020

Biography: Hugh Beattie passed through this world beginning in Hastings , NZ on October 15, 1953 and ending in Little Rock, AR on June 11, 2020.
 
Hugh was the consummate gentleman, always kind, and always a man of his word. If he told you he would do something, you knew it would be done. If he told you he would attend an event, he would be there despite better offers later. Hugh often got better offers, from a lot of different friends. 
 
Who calls friends to say hello on major holidays? Hugh did. On birthdays? Hugh did. And when you needed someone to assist wind down a Friday afternoon, Hugh would help. 
 
Hugh loved New Zealand, and he loved the U. S.. He loved life no matter where he was. 
 
He is survived by brother, Ian;  niece, Kathie; and nephew, Michael.
 
In his last will and  testament Hugh requested to be cremated. There will be a celebration of Hugh’s life at a later date.

Cheers to Hugh! He was a happy soul always looking to help someone. When the sailing club needed help Hugh was there with a beautiful boat for us to use in our junior sailing program. Just an example of the man's generosity!

I became friends with Hugh while duck hunting. I traveled to New Zealand and without asking, Hugh had his family and friends show me around. Back in Little Rock Hugh was the most generous host. Always happy and very giving. You will be missed. Rest In Peace
