Obituary of Michael James Sutton

Michael James Sutton “WHEELZ” got his legs back and rode his bike to a new home on May 21, 2020. He was born on March 29, 1990 in Urbana, New York to Laurie Cole. He was a beloved Son, Brother, Uncle, Grandson, Nephew, Cousin and Friend. He loved riding his bike before the car accident that left him a paraplegic. He didn’t let the paralysis stop him, if there was a challenge, he took it. A real dare devil. He had some great friends that stuck by him from day one. That gave him an opportunity to experience a lot of things he wouldn’t ordinarily had been able to do. If his friends were doing it, you can bet he was gonna try, if they would let him. He had a smile that lit up the room. Made everyone laugh and was there for you if you needed someone. His second Mom, Pat Kerkove nailed it by saying he is now jumping his bike from cloud to cloud. He is survived by his Mother Laurie Cole, Kingman, Arizona; Brothers Jeremy Taft (Daughter, Liberty Taft), Hammondsport, New York, Eric Sutton, Scottsdale, Arizona; Sister Rebecca Young (Daughter, Marley Perkins), Bath, New York; Grandmother Helen Bates, Painted Post, New York; several Aunts and Uncles; close Cousins Brian Cole, Florida, Josh Mills, California and Many Many Friends. Also, one very special lil friend “daughter”, Stormie. We love you and you will be missed so much, by so many. You will forever be in our hearts and in our homes. Love you Mikey, always and forever.
