Resident of the Month

In Loving Memory of Ann, August 2025

In Loving Memory of Ann Hutchings​

This month, we honor the life of a truly special member of our Wildcat Senior Living family — Ann Hutchings. Though she lived with us for just over a year, Ann made an unforgettable impact. Her warmth, kindness, and joyful spirit brought light to every corner of our community.
Born in Danville, Virginia, and raised in Richmond, Ann carried the charm and strength of her Southern roots throughout a life filled with love and adventure. Her journey took her across the globe — from the U.S. to Scotland and Jakarta, Indonesia — but no matter where she was, Ann had a rare gift for making people feel at home. She never met a stranger.

Ann dedicated 30 years to serving others at Summerville Medical Center, where she was deeply respected for her compassion and calm presence. Patients and coworkers alike remember her for her empathy and her unwavering ability to make people feel seen, heard, and cared for.
Ann’s childhood memories of summers spent riding horses on Bent Mountain remained close to her heart. That love of horses carried into adulthood, especially as she proudly became a “horse show mom” to her daughter, Erin. She also coached her son Paul’s soccer team, cheering him on from the sidelines with unmatched enthusiasm.

Her adventurous spirit was contagious — whether sailing, exercising, traveling, or spending time at the beach, Ann embraced life wholeheartedly. But the role she cherished most was being “Pama,” the cool, fun-loving grandma to her grandson, Cameron. Their bond was full of laughter, joy, and unforgettable moments.

Here at Wildcat, Ann was more than a resident — she was a friend, a bright presence, and a daily inspiration. Her thoughtful words, kind gestures, and easy laughter made our days better. She showed us all what it means to live with heart.
Ann Hutchings made Wildcat feel more like home — and she made the world warmer, brighter, and more joyful. Her legacy lives on in the love she gave, the lives she touched, and the family and friends who carry her memory forward.
We miss her deeply and remember her with love and gratitude.
