Ray Hutchison, the husband of former U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison and a power broker who played a key role in the creation of many of North Texas' most important economic engines, died at a Dallas hospital Sunday, News 8 has learned. Hutchison, who lived in Dallas with his wife, was a prominent municipal bond lawyer with the Dallas law firm Bracewell & Giuliani. Sources told News 8 that he died of a heart complication. Hutchison was 81. “Ray has been involved in virtually every major government development project of the past five decades,” said Ben Brooks, his close friend and law partner at Bracewell & Giuliani, to the Texas Lawbook in 2012. “Ray has easily been involved in more than $20 billion in bond issuances that have directly and positively impacted the North Texas economy.”
