Today, we celebrate the homegoing of a life well lived. Born October 22, 1932, a gift from God to Ms. Edna Means.  Mother Hutchinson was educated in Spartanburg County schools.  She had a love for cooking and sharing her passion and food with everyone she knew.

Mother Hutchinson had an outgoing personality.  She had eight children of her own, but was the mother to all of the neighborhood.  The neighbors would spend hours at her home.  The house would be full, but there was always room for one more. She was always willing and ready to give a helping hand. She will be truly missed.

On Monday, July 28, 2025, around 4:00 a.m., God could see that Mother Mildred Hutchinson was getting tired. God needed another beautiful flower to put into His garden. So, God sent an angel to seal Mother's lips and ease her pain. Mother Mildred Hutchinson slept into eternity.
