Sad to hear of the passing of this good looking Hatch boy. All Hatch descendents became hard workds like their parents and followed in the footsteps of thier great Grandad Willard Rudgar Hatch. How proud he would’ve been of these hard working honest young men! This young man was blessed to bare the resemblance of Rudd, Phil, with that great Taylor redheaded Hatch men!
