Obituary for Thomas Charles Hinchcliffe
08/09/1933 – 04/21/2018
Thomas Charles Hinchcliffe passed away peacefully in his sleep. He is survived by his loving wife, partner, and companion of 45 years, Daphne; his daughter, Barbara Hinchcliffe, of Everett, Washington; his sister, Jane Hinchcliffe and her spouse, Gerald Morneau of Torrington, Connecticut; his brother-in-law and spouse, Stephen and Joan Rosenzweig, of Potomac, Maryland; his sister-in-law Elaine Hinchcliffe; and his nephews, niece, and great-nieces, all of Connecticut. He was pre-deceased by his parents, Wilhelm and Nellie Hinchcliffe; his brother, John Hinchcliffe; and his son, Bryan Hinchcliffe.
After high school, Tom served in the army in Korea, and when he returned home he attended the University of Connecticut, with a major in literature, a subject for which he had a real love. His true passion, though, from the time he was a young boy, was building---building houses, boats, furniture, bird carvings, and wood-working of all sorts, using skills that he learned at the feet of his grandfather.
Another passion from a young age was art and antiques. He was always bringing home some treasured find. He met Daphne in 1972 when they each moved to Maine. They partnered over the years in his building projects and treasure-seeking. The love of the hunt overtook them to the point where they had to open a shop, so that they could sell antiques and continue hunting for more. Tom became well-known in the antique world of Maine, and was a member of the Maine Antique Dealers Association. He also became well-known for the beautiful farm tables that he built from antique boards, for which he was always on the hunt.
When not antiquing or building, he loved to work in the woods—to be outdoors and walk in the woods and observe animal life was a special treat.
No services will be held at this time, but a celebration of Tom’s life will be held in mid-July. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Tree of Life food pantry, 23 South St. Blue Hill 04614 or Blue Hill Heritage Trust, P O Box 222, Blue Hill 04614
