Patricia Ann Hutchins, age 77, passed away peacefully on May 13, 2025, at home surrounded by her loved ones.
Patricia-known fondly as Pat-lived a life filled with love, curiosity, and dedication. She is preceded in death by her second daughter, Robin. Pat is survived by her daughters Melanie Butts and Sheila Hutchins; grandchildren Brittany Hulsey and Hayden Benskin; great grandchildren Jacob and Jace Hulsey, Xander and Oaklee Benskin; and her sisters Sandra Flora, Winifred Minyard, and Rosalyn Ballard; granddogs Hutch and Lily.
Pat’s career reflected her drive and versatility, beginning as an electrician and data entry professional at Brown and Root, Inc., before continuing as an expediter with the United States Postal Service, where she worked until early retirement
Above all, Pat’s greatest joy came from her role as a mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. She adored her family and found deep fulfillment in their company. She also had a lifelong love of the arts, reading, music, dancing, and traveling-embracing life with an open mind and adventurous spirit.
Patricia was deeply loved and will be dearly missed by her family and friends. Her legacy of strength, selflessness, and enduring orneriness will live on in the hearts of those she leaves behind-until we meet again.
A celebration of life service will be held on Tuesday, May 20th, at 6-8 PM at Smith Family Funeral Home, 1921 Main St, NLR, AR, where family and friends are welcome to honor and celebrate Patricia’s life.
