Randall "Randy" Lawrence Sutton

Randall “Randy” Lawrence Sutton, age 74, of the Batesville Community, passed away Sunday, September 22, 2024, at his residence.

Born at the Charm House in Clarkesville on September 12, 1950, Randy was the son of the late Lawrence Holman and Sarah Allene Morrison Sutton.  He was a residential builder and the owner and operator of Randy Sutton Builders.  Randy was a former fire chief at the Batesville Volunteer Fire Department as well as a first responder.  He was an avid Georgia Bulldog fan and enjoyed his horses and horse-drawn buggies. During Sundays in summer, you would find Randy with his family at Lake Burton "boat church" at Moccasin State Park in the morning and on the lake or at a friend's cabin in the afternoon. No matter where it was, he loved spending time with his family, cousins, and friends.  Randy was a loving husband, father, and grandfather and wanted nothing more than to be surrounded by those he loved in their Raper Creek home that he created for them to enjoy. In addition to his parents, Randy was preceded in death by his nephew Chris Pruitt, father-in-law Philip D’Entremont, and mother-in-law Patricia D’Entremont.

Survivors include his wife, Ann D’Entremont Sutton of Batesville, daughter, and son-in-law Jenna and Brent Hinkel of Batesville, sons, and daughters-in-law Jeremy and Kristin Sutton of Lula and Joe and Jessy Sutton of Batesville, sister, and brother-in-law Wanda Sutton and Randy Pruitt of Cornelia, grandchildren Gabe Hinkel, Makenzie Hinkel, Noah Hinkel, Lilah Sutton, Grace Sutton, Lucy Sutton, and Eleanor Sutton, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and many friends.

The family will receive friends at Hillside Memorial Chapel on Sunday, September 29, 2024, from 12:00 PM until 2:00 PM.  A covered dish reception will follow at 4:00 PM at the Wildcat Fire Station near LaPrades, 5228 Highway 197 North, Clarkesville, Ga. Please come dressed comfortably and casually and wear outdoor shoes.

Randy spent his entire life building and creating homes and shelters for families.  It is the desire of his family that, in lieu of flowers, memorials be made to Habitat for Humanity of Northeast Georgia, P.O. Box 982, Clarkesville, GA 30523; or take a loved one out to dinner and raise a toast in memory of Randy and the kindness he showed to all of us.

An online guestbook is available and may be viewed at HillsideMemorialChapel.com

Arrangements are in the care and professional direction of Hillside Memorial Chapel, Clarkesville.
