Mr. Sutton was one of those teachers who you wanting to do better and be a better person. He even called me out when he knew I wasn't doing my best. I thank him for that moment and I am grateful for having him as a teacher at Josey. The values and things I learned from my teachers at Josey especially Mr. Sutton have made me a better person and teacher. Mr. Sutton's family please note that your husband, father, and grandfather made a difference in the eyes of children. I pray God's peace and grace around you during this time. Thanks for allowing to Mr. Sutton in our lives. He will be forever remembered by me and others of the Class of 2004 especially his AP Physics Class with Me and Ben Ivey. God Blessed!
