Not sure what to say?

I was born in Phillips and was same age as Scott. I worked in High school with Joey. I had many wonderful experience catering to different parts of the state with him. He always treated me like part of the Sutphen's family. He will be missed.

Last time I saw Joey was at the play Texas serving that famous BBQ. Will always remember their place in Phillips for the clown portrait that said "I complained about my shoes until I met a man with no feet.". Rest in peace my friend. Y'all were family. Julie Allison

Joey was my friend, and I will miss him. I was the same age as his brother Scott. We attend Phillips schools, I worked at the Bar B Q place that they owned. Helped them cater to thousands of people. I lasted talked to Joey when he was in KY. God Bless and watch over you my friend.

My name is Ken Harris. I live in Dallas. Grew up in Borger. My mother and Marjorie Sutphen were close friends. Many Sutphen memories. Some time in the future could Greg Sutphen contact me please. [email protected] or my phone is 469 243-8163. I want to share memories and ask about the family. Thank you. We love the Sutphens.

We missed You lots Joey
