He was a living encyclopedia on plants, shrubs and especially trees, having learned much knowledge from his uncle, Paul Wagoner, of Greencastle, Ind., and his mother. Hugh attended Bradley UMC in Greenfield in the 1980s and early 1990s and was most recently a member of Mohawk UMC. Hugh was preceded in death by his parents and brother-in-law, Josef Zninski.
