BARNARDSVILLE– Reva Stone Hutchins, age 97, of Barnardsville, went to be with the Lord, Wednesday, April 3, 2019.

Mrs. Hutchins was born May 16, 1921 in Buncombe County to the late Garrett and Nettie Allen Stone; she lived all of her life in Barnardsville.

Surviving are her sons, Roger Hutchins, Max Hutchins, and Jay Hutchins; daughter, Louise Bishop; brother, Enloe Stone; and five grandchildren.
