Louis Wayne Hachey
of Manchester, MI, age 75, died Saturday, October 27, 2018 at his home. He was born March 27, 1943 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the son of Joseph W. & Mary (Ross) Hachey.
Louie was a unique character and an avid sportsman.
Character: one of the attributes that make up and distinguish an individual
Avid: characterized by enthusiasm and vigorous pursuit
Sportsman: a person who engages in sports such as hunting or fishing
“Avid” may not be a strong enough word for Louie’s many pursuits; perhaps if it were in all caps: AVID. He was an AVID pursuer of life, Alice was the love of his life, and if he wasn’t hunting or fishing, he was tending his garden. Louie loved to share his bounty, passing along the vegetables he grew, venison he hunted, or the fish he caught. He shared his passion and knowledge of the woods, lakes, and life-lessons with many, teaching everyone he encountered with a little bit of something. He was an AVID storyteller of all the crazy and almost unbelievable escapades he’s had. If you knew him, you knew there was truth behind those words and you probably shook your head, chuckled a bit, and thought to yourself, “what an adventure this man had.” And what an adventure he had.
