Judy Hutton Obituary

Judy Blankenship Hutton April 20, 2024

KINGSPORT - Judy Blankenship Hutton, 81, of Kingsport went to be with the Lord on Saturday, April 20, 2024. She passed peacefully in her home surrounded by those that loved her.

Judy was born to the late Reverend C.J. and Rosalee Flanary in Kingsport, Tennessee in 1942. She spent her youth in Kingsport and was a member of Orebank Baptist Church. Judy graduated from Lynn View High School Class of 1960 where she served as a Drum Major.

During her working life, Judy was a manager of Town & Tweed as well as a Medical Billings Manager at Wellmont Physicians Services for many years.

She was a long-time member of Kingsport First Assembly of God where she showcased her talent for decorating and throwing a party.

She was dedicated to living as a daughter of Christ through service to her community and neighbors.

Judy was a member of the Kingsport Lifesaving Crewettes, Kingsport Jaycees, Junior League of Kingsport, and volunteered through Ballad Health. Her life was filled with hard work, joy, love, and faith. A little bit of shopping thrown in never hurt anything either.

In addition to her parents, Judy is preceded in death by her husband, Richard Wayne Hutton; father of her children, Edward Roy Blankenship; brother, Gene Flanary; and granddaughter, Michelle Flanary.

Those left to cherish Judy's memory include her daughter, Julia Davis (Richard); sons, Greg Blankenship and Tim Blankenship (Sherrie); grandchildren Conner Blankenship (Haleigh), Jessi Davis and Lexi Davis, Abby Shaffer; step-grandchildren, Heather Barham and Chase Barham; great grandchildren, Emersyn, Ellie, Knox, Hazel, Heath, and Hailee; sister, Betty Adams (Jerry); and several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

The family will receive friends from 5:00 PM until 7:00 PM on Wednesday, April 24, 2024, at Oak Kill Funeral Home.

A funeral service will be conducted at 1:00 PM on Thursday, April 25, 2024, at Oak Hill Funeral Home with Pastor Pete Miller and Pastor Paul Wright officiating.

A Graveside service will follow at Oak Hill Memorial Park in the Garden of Meditation. Friends and family will serve as pallbearers.

The care of Judy Blankenship Hutton and her family has been entrusted to the staff of Oak Hill Funeral & Cremation Services.
