Frederick G. McNutt
February 19, 1935 — April 9, 2020
Frederick G. McNutt, 85, beloved husband of Arline (Stanley) McNutt, passed away peacefully on Thursday, April 9, 2020 after his long battle with dementia.
Born in Somerville, he was the loving son of the late Morton and Kathleen (Martin) McNutt. Fred grew up in Somerville along with his eight siblings. After high school he joined the United States Air Force and served honorably during the Korean War. While stationed at Pease Air Force Base in Portsmouth he met the love of his life Arline who would become his wife of 64 years. After they were married they moved to Medford and began raising a family. Eventually they settled in Stoneham and have remained ever since.
Fred was a heavy equipment operator and a member of the Local 4 Union for over 35 years. He worked on some of the largest construction projects in the City of Boston over the years, finishing his career on the Big Dig.
When Fred was not working, he had a love of music and singing. It was his music that got him through the tougher times.
During his retirement, Fred enjoyed spending winters in Florida with his wife and many friends.
His greatest joy came from being at home with his family and spending time with his grandchildren. Fred was a loving, generous and kind-hearted man with a witty sense of humor. He will be greatly missed by his adoring family and friends.
