Michelle Leanne Hutcheson, 47, of Ripley, Oklahoma, passed from this life on September 5, 2022, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Palmer Marler Funeral Home, Cushing.

Michelle was born on February 18, 1975, in Englewood, Colorado to proud parents Edward and Patricia (Pugh) Hupp.  She grew up in Denver and Conifer, Colorado graduating from Evergreen High School with the Class of 1993.  After graduation, Michelle traveled and enjoyed life which led her to meet the love of her life, John Hutcheson. The two of them were later married in Las Vegas, Nevada. They settled in Cocoa Beach, Florida and were blessed with three children.  Michelle worked for the cruise lines in various roles for a number of years.  She loved the Denver Broncos, gambling with friends at casinos (and usually winning!), watching murder mysteries, dancing, and a good Bud Light.  Michelle was a friend to many (both people and animals), she loved to laugh and make others laugh, and especially enjoyed pranking friends.

She is survived by her children, Ashley Hutcheson, John Hutcheson Jr., and Holly Hutcheson; grandson Gabriel Hutcheson; father, Edward and wife Louann Hupp; sister, Tereasa and husband Rex Wright; as well as many extended family and friends.
