Ms. Ann Lowell Hutter

Martha “Ann” Lowell Hutter, age 86, passed away peacefully on April 27, 2024, after a long battle with Lewy Body Dementia. Ann was born on August 21, 1937, in New Hanover, NC, to Harry and Irene Touchton. After her father was tragically killed in a car accident, her mother, Irene, packed up and moved Ann and her two siblings, Jeanine and Herb(ie)to Harrisville, MS, where she grew up on her beloved Papa’s farm. Some years later, Ann graduated from Harrisville Highschool, class of 1956. She married Jim Bishop of MS shortly after. She would give birth to her first child, an infant son, who passed away soon after birth. Next she would give birth to a healthy baby girl, Mariann Bishop. Ann and Jim’s marriage ended in divorce so Ann and Mariann moved to Mobile, AL, in 1964. She ended up residing in Mobile, AL, for the remainder of her life. In 1965, she married Gordon C. Lowell. Ann Lowell and Gordon C. Lowell had a daughter, Ginger A. Lowell, in 1966, giving Mariann a little sister! Ann and Gordon Lowell were a big part of Mobile Mardi Gras as Ann was a Polka Dot, and Gordon was a Striper and a member of the Mystics of Time. Aside from Mardi Gras Associations, they were also a big part of local charitable organizations. Ann was in the Daughters of the Nile, and Gordon was a Shriner for the Abba Temple. These two organizations worked together to help burned and crippled children. Later, Ann Lowell would become the queen of the Daughters of the Nile, and Gordon Lowell the Potentate of Abba Temple in 1975. Ann and Gordon Lowell also owned The Sky Ranch Steak House with the famous “Bull on the roof” and later, they owned Gordon Lowell’s Seafood Restaurant. In 1993, Ann married Larry Hutter. They enjoyed traveling to different countries and watching the sunset over the lake at their West Mobile home. Ann Hutter and Larry spent their last golden years together. Ann loved Disney World, cruising, and painting pictures. She was a great wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend to many. We are at peace knowing she is home with our Lord & Savior and has been reunited in heaven with her daughter, Mariann. Martha Ann Lowell Hutter is survived by her daughter: Ginger Key (Lamar), Son-in-law: Elbert Hall, Grandsons: Matthew Hall (Adonica), Ross Garrett Key (Kristen), Granddaughters: Meghan Lynde (Jared), Kristin Phillis (Nicholas), Sarah Brooks (Tre’), Great-Grandchildren: Riley Hall, Collin Hall, Mason Hall, Braxton Lynde, Jayli Lynde, Emma Lynde, Brycen Brooks, Luke Phillis, Liam Phillis, Levi Phillis, Lillie Rae Key & Ross Lane Key, and other countless family and friends. Martha Ann Lowell Hutter was preceded in death by: Larry Hutter (Spouse), Gordon Lowell (Spouse), Jim Bishop (Spouse), Infant Son, Mariann Hall (Daughter), Herb Touchton (Brother), Jeanine Smith (Sister) and Harry & Irene Touchton (Parents). A Celebration of Life will be a non-conventional celebration at sea. Ann’s final wish was to go on a cruise one last time and have her ashes thrown into the sea, so we will do just that. If any donations would like to be made in lieu of flowers toward Ann’s celebration at sea, please Venmo: Anns-Last-Voyage. Or, even better, join us! Dates to come
