Just thinking about how much I miss hearing my brother's voice. We talked almost everyday. The service was very nice and 6 of his 9 children were able to come and pay their respects. Lots of friends and family were there. Beautiful flowers and wonderful comments. Thank you Jehovah for the resurrection hope!! I can't wait to see my brother again❤️Love Always, Shirley

My beloved Uncle. You were and will always be one of the greatest men in my life. You meant so much to the family. I can recall countless funny stories my Mom (Dorothy) and Aunt Donna would tell of your childhood. I always laugh about the clubhouse Auntie burned down lol. We all love you so much. My Mom even prayed to have a son born on your birthday and her prayers were answered with Carey. Although you're no longer here with us, your presence and love will always be with us. You are missed. Love, Carm

"Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out" John 5:28,29
"There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous" Acts 24:15
The future will be glorious beyond our ability to comprehend. You can count on that, confident that what Jehovah God has promised, he is also able to do.

Brother:
Welcome home my son, I can hear The Master Say,
Your Job was well done, You fought a good fight,
Sometimes both Day and Night.
You've ran the race, keeping good pace, a Job well done,
with a smile on your face, that's part of God's saving Grace.
Day's were long, many things went wrong, You kept the Faith
and held on strong, But you were tired and wanted go home,
God heard your Prayer, He would not leave you in despair.
Welcome Home My Son,
Welcome Home:
I Love You Bro!

You will truly be missed Uncle. Even though I know you're in a better place, free from pain and sickness it still hurts to know you're gone. You blessed the lives of everyone who knew you and our hearts will forever be sadden. GOD called you home to be with him and now you are amongst the angles. I love you always and forever.

To my eight sibling’s, as we prepare to say our good-byes to our father, each of his children, all nine, are linked together with a common dominator, which factors in a unique formula (SB) of its own.
A heart felt moment to spare, I stand praying a sibling’s prayer
A gathered moment of laughter, with the mirror image in which we share, we find a similar reflection without a glair
I stand praying a sibling’s prayer
As our father is laid to rest, let us find gratitude in knowing our father stood proudly
As we all stand repeating a sibling’s prayer
In loving memory of my father, Jessie L. Sutton
Your loving daughter,

Rooster was my brother! Over 50 plus years ago he and my grandma Estella Gavin Mills drove from Deland Florida to Jacksonville Florida to pick up his Brand New Baby sister, and that was me. He was so happy to get a little sister and I respected him as my big brother and wonderful father figure. I will miss our daily talks. I love you dearly♥️
