Dion is survived by Sarah Sutfin, mother of his two daughters, Ashley Sutfin of Brookland and Tori Butler (Eric) of Lake City; his mother, Barbara Sue Sutfin; one brother, Noel Sutfin of Brookland; one sister, Deanna Petty of Brookland; five grandchildren, Jasmine Smith, Jace Leggett, Gunner Sutfin, Charleigh Lavigne, and Stormie Butler; nieces, Skylar Hester, Aleisia Petty, and Melinda Riggins; nephew, Braden Riggins; one great-niece, Willow Golden; and a lifetime of friends who will deeply miss him.
