Mary Ann Hutcherson
June 25, 1949 — September 11, 2018
Mary Ann Hutcherson (nee McSwain) of Lake St. Louis, Missouri, fortified with the Sacraments of the Holy Mother Church, Tuesday, September 11, 2018.
Beloved wife of Mark C. Hutcherson of 44 years. Cherished daughter of the late Samuel R. McSwain “Mac” and Bertha Regina McSwain (nee Groebl). Both of Mary Ann’s parents were rosarians, hence her love of roses, especially pink roses.
Mary Ann is also survived by dear friends Ed and Nancy O’Brien of Discovery Bay, California; Ellen and Dennis Baker of Berkeley, California; goddaughter, Marjie Chuchola (nee Waelterman) and husband Tom Chuchola and children Nicholas, Natalie, and Henry Rausch of Chesterfield, Missouri; and cousin Oscar J. Groebl, Jr. “Sonny” of Cedar Hill, Missouri.
Mary Ann is also survived by many cousins, friends and neighbors in St. Louis, Missouri; California; Arizona; Washington; and several other states.
Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Mary Ann was raised and educated in San Mateo, California. She excelled in retail merchandising and management, having work for Weinstock's Department Store for 21 years and other large retail firms.
The passion and guiding light of Mary Ann’s life was her Catholic faith and believes; being active most recently in her parish of Immaculate Conception of Dardenne Catholic Church, Dardenne Prairie, Missouri.
Also, Mary Ann devoted much time and creativity in the service of the Daughters of St. Paul, Pauline Books and Media store of Crestwood, Missouri. She was much loved and valued by the devoted Sisters and volunteers of that community.

Why do we sometimes look upon the falling
Leaves as drops of tears
When they could be our troubles scattering?
Why do we say the autumn of our years
When there must be an autumn for a spring?
Why must we curse the frozen earth
When it’s the frost that helps the seed
make a tree?
Spring too you see brings death as well as birth.
