Pamela “Pammy” Sue Mitchell Hutchison, 56, of Madisonville, Kentucky, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 6, 2026, with her beloved son, Tyler, by her side.
She was born on June 10, 1970, in Calhoun, KY, to the late Dora Willis Mitchell and Dicky Mitchell. She was employed by the Hopkins County Board of Education and worked at Browning Springs Middle School.
Pammy was a woman whose life was defined by love. She was loving, selfless, caring, and the kind of person who always put others before herself. She had a heart for helping people and never hesitated to be there for the people she loved. Whether you needed someone to listen, someone to help, or simply someone to remind you that you weren’t alone, Pammy was that person.
Above all else, Pammy was an incredible mother. Her son Tyler was her greatest love and one of the greatest joys of her life. He was her little shadow, and the two shared a bond that words could never fully describe. She was not only his mother, but his best friend, his safe place, and the person he could always count on. She loved her son fiercely, and he adored her just as deeply.
Pammy was also known for her strength and determination. Life threw obstacles her way, but she never allowed them to define her. She faced every challenge with a strength that inspired the people around her. She was determined to keep going, no matter how difficult the road became, and she proved time and time again just how strong she truly was.
Those who knew Pammy knew she could also bring people together through the things she loved. She had a love for reality television and had a special talent for getting all of her friends hooked on whatever show she was watching. She also had incredible taste in movies and could always be counted on for a good recommendation. These little things are among the many memories that will continue to bring smiles to the people who loved her.
Pammy was a wonderful mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and so much more. She had a way of making people feel cared for and loved, and the impact she had on the lives around her will never be forgotten.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Dora and Dicky Mitchell, and her sister, Monica Mitchell.
She leaves behind her beloved son, Tyler Hutchison; her husband, Dewey Hutchison; sister, Angie Classen; brothers, Bill Mitchell and Dale Mitchell; along with countless family members and friends whose lives were made better simply because Pammy was a part of them.
Pammy spent her life loving and caring for others. In the end, it was her son who had the privilege of holding her hand and being beside her as she peacefully left this world.
Her hands may no longer be here to hold, but the love she gave will remain forever.
Pammy was loved more than words could ever express, and she will be missed more than words could ever say. Her son will carry her with him for the rest of his life, just as she carried him in her heart from the moment he was born.
A funeral service will be held at 2 p.m. on Thursday, September 10, 2026, in the chapel of Harris Funeral Home with Bro. EddieFlemingofficiating. Burial to follow at Hanson Cemetery in Hanson, KY.
