Mrs. Sutton was born December 31st, 1928 to the late Jesse and Emily Heath.

She is survived by 3 daughters, Judy (Ricky) Hines, Peggy Rikard, Carolyn (Ricky) Young; 1 daughter-in-law, Janice Sutton; 5 grandchildren, Jimmy E. Sutton, Jamie Sharp, Shane Holifield, Karen Rikard, and Brittany Barratt; 9 great-grandchildren, Kimberly, Tiffany, Jordan, Jenna, Mason, Alisha, Mia, Ella, and Alyssa; and a host of nieces and nephews, other relatives and friends.

She was preceded in death by her husband, James Sutton; 1 son, Jimmy Sutton; her parents, Jesse and Emily Heath; and all her brothers and sisters.

The family would like to extend a special thanks to Dr. Miranda Decker; ICU nurses of Russellville Hospital; and the caregivers at Terrace Manor for your love and care of our mother.
