Jay Dee "JD"
WIBAUX, Mont. - A funeral
service for Jay Dee "J.D." Hutchin-
son, 56, of Wibaux, Mont., was held
at 12 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 4, 2014,
at the Wibaux County High School
Gymnasium in Wibaux. For those
who wanted to take one last ride
with J.D., they were welcome to
bring a horse and follow the horse-
drawn carriage to the Wibaux Ex-
hibit Hall following the service.
Visitation for J.D. was from 4-6
p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 3, at the
United Methodist Church in
Wibaux.
Jay Dee passed away unexpect-
edly on Friday, Nov. 28,2014, at his
ranch north of Wibaux, with his dog,
Dakota and his Dad's dog, Pepper,
at his side.
Jay Dee "J.D." Hutchinson was
born March 27, 1958, in to Glenn
and Bonita "Bonnie" Arlene Smith
Hutchinson in Glendive, Mont. J.D.
was raised on the family ranch north
of Wibaux. He attended school in
Wibaux until March of 1977, when
he moved to Cody, Wyo., where he
graduated from high school. J.D. re-
turned to Wibaux and worked as
roughneck in the oil field, for Smith
Cattle Company and on the race-
track. After getting hurt on the oil
rig, he returned to the family ranch
to help his father.
In 1982, J.D. fell in love with
Heidi Cox and they have been to-
gether for 32 years. Heidi tells the
story of getting on the school bus in
the sixth grade and the only seat left
was one with J.D. Who knew back
then what this would lead to? J.D.
started rodeoing at the age of 8 when
he competed in Little Britches
rodeos and high school rodeos. He
competed in all three rough stock
events and roping. J.D. was a great
team roper, however, he put his team
roping on the back burner so he
could take his kids rodeoing.
J.D. was so proud of his kids. He
even had a MHSRA coat that said
"Shae's Dad." After the kids were
done with high school rodeo, J.D.
started judging rodeos. J.D. was
willing to help any kid in the rodeo
arena and was a babysitter for his
adopted children, Kaci Jo and the
Tousignant boys. J.D. passed his love
for hunting "the big buck" to his son,
!
Tyler, and the love of ranching and
roping to both Tyler and Shae. Heidi
was the love of his life; he would do
anything for her from helping coach
volleyball, making Christmas good-
ies, to this year cooking Thanksgiv-
ing dinner. J.D. was a man of very
few words and smiles, except for the
children in his life and his new
grandson, Kacin. He was never
without a rope, a good horse, and a
cow dog at his side. At the time of
his death, J.D. was Wibaux County
weed supervisor, a director for the
Cowboy Hall of Fame, and a rodeo
judge. He had just bought the family
ranch and was working it with Heidi,
Tyler, Shae and his sister, Bey.
God must have needed another
good cowboy, so he called J.D. to
come cross the great divide to be
with his dad, where they are ranch-
ing and roping in that big arena in the
sky. J.D. was preceded in death by
his parents, and two sisters. He is
survived by his wife, Heidi; son,
Tyler; daughter, Shae (Dale) Peplin-
ski; his pride and joy grandson,
Kacin Paul; his faithful dog, Dakota;
sister, Beverly Hutchinson of Miles
City, Mont.; one uncle, Keith
Hutchinson of Gillette, Wyo.; his
special kids, Kaci Jo Hougland, Ty,
Colton and Chas Tousignant; and
two other siblings.
Dick R. Kukowski
BILLINGS, Mont. - Dick R.
Kukowski, 75, of Billings, Mont.,
passed away Nov. 25, 2014. He was
born June 9, 1939, in Beach, to Ray-
mond and Clarice Kukowski. He was
the second of five children.
Dick attended Beach High School
and after graduation joined the
Army. After his honorable discharge
from the Army he returned to Beach.
In 1962, he married his first wife,
Ardith McGill, and to this union five
children were born: Kenneth, Ver-
non, Jeff, Darren and Susan.
Dick enjoyed working on ranches
in Montana, North Dakota and Min-
nesota. He also worked for many
trucking companies and went on to
own his own trucking company.
In March 1974, Dick married his
best friend and love of his life Sheri
(Lee) Busch. In May 1975, they were
blessed with their only child,
Chance. Ever since Chance was a
baby, Dick would take him trucking
and teach him how to drive trucks.
He taught him how to ride horses and
work cows on the ranch. They spent
many hours working together and
enjoying what they were doing.
Dick enjoyed get-togethers with
his family and friends and laughing
and telling stories of days gone by.
He was especially fond of his niece
Jolene Lee, who held a special place
in his heart and who he considered a
daughter. He enjoyed riding his red-
roan horse Jake, oftentimes with
Chance's wife Tandi at his side. Dick
was also an avid reader. There wasn't
a Louise L'Amour book Dick hadn't
read at least once.
Dick is survived by his wife and
son, Sheri and Chance. Also his sons
and daughter with first wife Ardith;
Kenneth, Vernon, Jeff and Susan; his
mother, Clarice and his sister and
brothers; Helen, Jack, Jim and Steve;
also many nieces, nephews and
grandchildren, all of whom he loved
very much.
He is preceded in death by his fa-
ther Raymond Kukowski and his son
Darren Kukowski.
Rest in peace my dear friend and
bless your heart. You will truly be
missed.
Services will be held Thursday,
Dec. 11, at 1 p.m., at Harvest Church
