It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Lilla Louise "EE" Elliott Hutton,
who passed away peacefully at home on April 30, 2025, at 9:30 a.m. She was born on
November 16, 1942, in Sidon, MS, to Guy Ray and Helen Comstock Elliott. Her father
passed when she was a small child and her mother married Robert Daves and the
family moved to Greenwood where she spent the rest of her youth. She graduated from
Delta State University in 1964 and soon after met her husband, James Buchanan
Hutton, III. They were married November 24, 1965, and lived in Tchula, MS, for the
remainder of their lives.
She was an active member of Tchula Presbyterian Church and loved spending time with
her family and friends. She was affectionately known as "EE" to any child that knew her
and she loved them all like they were her own. Her ability to make children fall in love
with her is accounted to her stature making her very close to their size and being a child
at heart herself.
She is preceded in death by her husband of 45 years James Buchanan Hutton, III,
father Guy Ray Elliott, mother Helen Comstock Elliott Daves, step-father Robert Daves,
brother Charles Patrick Elliott, and sister Helen Grace Baker. She is survived by her
sons James Buchanan Hutton, IV (Rachel), Robert Elliott Hutton (Traci), William Dobyns
Hutton (Shauna), brother Guy Ray "Mike" Elliott, Jr (Patricia),10 grandchildren and 11
great-grandchildren.
Pallbearers will be her grandsons Robert Elliott Hutton, Jr., Seth Johnson Hutton,
Morgan Ryle Hutton, James Buchanan Hutton, V, Parker Dwight Hutton, William "Quint"
Gilbert Shivers, V, and William Louis Weisenberger, Jr.
Visitation will be held at Southern Funeral Home in Lexington, MS, Monday, May 5 from
5:00 - 7:00 pm. A worship service will be held at Tchula Presbyterian Church on
Tuesday, May 6 at 9:00 am with burial following at Pinecrest Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made in her memory to Tchula
Presbyterian Church.
