Carol Hutton

Chris and Rebecca, you are family, yes we are always five hours away but we always enjoyed the visits that were never often enough. I loved your mom and dad and will deeply miss them both. I would always tell her she was my favorite “aunt” and she loved to remind that she was Mae’s niece and that we are cousins, I finally convinced her that I call her aunt as a term of endearment and that as long as I could remember she was my favorite aunt and that I have nothing but great memories of her, Greg and Chris and Bec. She smiled, we hugged and she told me she loved me too. This was one of my last conversations with her, we were in Las Vegas, she enjoyed a nice shot of Jack Daniel’s and we had a meal that night. It was special, it was great and a lot of fun, just like my Aunt Carol. We will miss her deeply.

Carol Hutton's love and devotion to her children and her family was exemplary, and I am grateful that I was able to know that firsthand. Her support was unflagging and her enthusiasm genuine and unflagging. That smile in this photo is the way I remember her at every performance, at moments she shared with Becky and Chris, and whenever I spoke with her that smile was a key part of our interaction. She will be missed dearly, but remembered fondly and her legacy will live on in the many ways she influenced you both and the work you've done and contributions you've made through her encouragement and support. May her love always be wrapped around you.

I can't believe I am writing this....It happened way too fast and unexpected....You were my niece but being only 4 years apart we were more like sisters. So many memories.....the summer I spent with you....I was 17....you were 13..... your mom gave us the Cadillac for the night.....bowling....softball and all those races....gambling...then couple years ago took on corn hole....I will miss your delicious food our long talks and most of all hearing your laugh and just being with you....I love you Carol and I'll always be there for Chris and Bec....Love Auntie Mae and Uncle Mike

Lit a candle in memory of Carol Hutton

Wednesday was the saddest day of my life. Carol has been my best friend for 30+ years. Michael and I are both devastated at her passing and are heartbroken for Chris & Bec and all the Grands & Great Grands, as well as the rest of Carol's family and friends. . Carol was a magnificent person - generous in every way possible, full of love and laughs, wisdom and most of all for me, unwavering support, love & friendship of the best kind. I will miss her terribly. From NASCAR race weekends in Bristol & Charlotte to a Dixie Chick concert in Dublin Ireland, it was always the most fun ever in my life. Our Love & Sincerest Sympathies to all that knew & loved this one of a kind Lady. Sadly, Kat & Michael Bratt
