Aaron Hugene "Sutt" Sutterfield, 82, passed away on Friday, Sept. 29, 2017, in Shawnee. Hugene was a resident of Tecumseh at his death. Sutt was born on Feb. 26, 1935, in Cabaniss. He was a lifelong lover of sports. He was a left-handed pitcher for Stuart High School and for a military team during his three-year stint in the United States Air Force. Upon return to civilian life, he declined an opportunity to pitch in the minor leagues, choosing instead to play semi-pro ball and be with his family. He was a baseball umpire, a low-handicap golfer, part-owner and enthusiastic supporter of a few racehorses and an avid fisherman. He also played guitar and sang so much like Charlie Pride that he could have been his stand-in. He was preceded in death by his parents, Aaron Andrew Sutterfield and Mattie Velma Sutterfield, and by two sisters and brothers-in-law, Wanda Louise and S.T. Morris, and Neta Faye and Ralph Morris. A memorial service will be held on Oct. 7, at 2 p.m. at Tecumseh Pentecostal Church of God with Pastor Fred Owens officiating.
