Judia "Judy" Hutcheson

Judia "Judy" Hutcheson, 75, of Obion, Tennessee, died on Monday, October 27, 2025, at her residence in Obion, Tennessee.
Born Thursday, March 2, 1950, in Dyer County, Tennessee, she was the youngest of eight children born to the late Elmer Franklin Tidwell and the late Lydia B. Johnson Tidwell. Judy was a retired welder with Republic Builders, where she worked many years and took great pride in her work and made many lasting friendships.
She attended Our Little Country Church, where she found joy and fellowship among her church family. Judy loved life and lived it with a joyful spirit. She was especially fond of dancing - whether it was line dancing to Boot Scootin' Boogie or two-stepping with her beloved husband, those were some of her happiest moments.
Judy enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, like mowing the grass and spending time outdoors. She also loved camping - especially when the campsite was near the casino. Her famous chocolate gravy and biscuits were a family favorite and a tradition that brought everyone to the table with smiles and full hearts.
Above all, Judy loved her family. She cherished every moment shared with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
