Greg Sutton Obituary

Greg Sutton
May 11, 1958 – June 28, 2025
Kinston – Gregory Dan Sutton, 67, passed away on Saturday, June 28, 2025. Greg was born in Lenoir County to the late John Daniel "Danny" Sutton and Lottie Faye Hines Sutton Mercer on May 11, 1958.
Greg worked at Caswell Developmental Center as a rehabilitation therapist until his retirement. Retirement didn't mean slowing down-just shifting gears. His days became filled with all the things he loved: family, friends, the beach, and riding his motorcycles.
Spending nearly every day at the beach, Greg enjoyed walks along the shore, fishing, and playing fetch with his dog, Brandi. Known as "Pops" to his children and "Big G" to many, he was always available to support his friends and family, investing his time and energy into the things that brought them joy.
If you ever found yourself talking to Greg, chances are you didn't stay a stranger for long. With a personality larger than life, his ability to tell stories was beyond compare. A music enthusiast who enjoyed a broad array of styles, Greg had music playing all the time. Riding down winding roads on his motorcycle was a favorite pastime, and he'd be sure to tell you of his preference for an Indian over a Harley any day.
Greg's love for travel was sparked every time someone brought up the possibility of a trip. When someone said, "go," Greg already had his keys in hand. Finding his greatest joy in time with family and friends, he was always up for the next big adventure.
In keeping with his wishes, Greg's life will be celebrated in a private setting.
Greg is survived by his wife of 43 years, Karen Alphin Sutton; sons, Brian Keith Sutton and Dustan Ross Sutton; brother, Ronnie Sutton and wife, Terry; sister, Teresa Sutton; a special friend he called a sister, Jeana; many friends with whom he enjoyed riding motorcycles and traveling; and his canine companion and "best girl," Brandi.
