Cathy Hutchinson

Cathy Hutchinson, a well known disability advocate in West Virginia, died peacefully in her sleep on Wednesday, December 14 while on vacation. She was 63. She was the Vocational Director at Mountain State Centers for Independent Living, providing advocacy and direct services to people with disabilities. She will be remembered through all the lives of people with disabilities she touched who are now living independently, are employed, and are advocating for others in the disability community. Cathy graduated from Marshall University in 2001 with a degree in counseling, and began working at the center for independent living that same year. She was well known throughout West Virginia as a determined advocate. She was currently serving her second term as Chairperson of the West Virginia Statewide Independent Living Council. She was also the Chairperson of the Ron Yost Personal Assistance Services Board. She was a former Chairperson of the statewide Fair Shake Network. She was preceded in death by her brother Thomas. She is survived by two sisters; Janet Rowe of Barboursville and Nancy Hutchinson of Columbus, Ohio. She is survived by two brothers; John Hutchinson of Barboursville and Richard Hutchinson of Columbus, Ohio. She is also survived by a niece Tiffanie (Ray) Neil, great niece Aleria Robertson and great niece Laycee Burns. She is also survived by her dear friend and colleague, Anne Weeks. Cathy requested that instead of flowers, please make a donation to Mountain State Centers for Independent Living in remembrance of her work, and the work of her fellow disability advocates, to support people with disabilities. Visitation will be from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday and from 10 to 11 a.m. Monday at the Wallace Funeral Home, Barboursville.
