We are sad to announce that on April 18, 2024 we had to say goodbye to Ethel (Mozeley) Sutton of Newton, North Carolina, born in Catawba, North Carolina. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In bidding Ethel adieu, let us not mourn the silence that now fills the spaces Ethel once occupied, but rather celebrate the vibrant colors she painted upon the canvas of our lives. For while she may have departed from this earthly realm, her spirit remains a beacon of light, guiding us through the darkest of nights.

She was predeceased by : her parents, Robert Edwin and Grace Edith Kanipe Mozeley; her husband Solomon "Buddy" Sutton; her son-in-law Eddie White; and her siblings, G. Robert Mozeley, Helen Hutchens and Edith Kanupp.

She is survived by : her daughters, Deborah McGee (Ronald) of Newton and Paula White of Newton; and her grandchildren, Daniel White of Newton and Mary Kate Rader of Hudson. She is also survived by 4 great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
