Suewilla Armour Sutton Bullock, age ninety-five of Ruston, Louisiana, went to be with the Lord on December 27, 2024.  She was born on December 10, 1929, in Haynesville, Louisiana.  She was saved and born again at an early age at the Haynesville Methodist Church, and later joined the Baptist faith as an adult, was baptized, and was a member of the Felker Free Will Baptist Church near Valliant, Oklahoma, for many years.

The youngest of the three Armour girls, she was preceded in death by her parents Gus W. and Mattie (Garrett) Armour, her sisters Franceil O. Walden and Marjorie Grimmett McDougal, her husband Cecil O. Bullock, and a granddaughter Kimberly Dawn Sutton.

As a young mother she taught Sunday School and Vacation Bible School, and she was a Cub Scout Den Mother.  She worked Civil Service for several years on two separate occasions and had various other jobs, but she found her life’s work as an entrepreneur.  She and Cecil owned and operated a convenience store and rental property business in Valliant, where she resided for over forty years and made many dear friends.

She is survived by her three sons and their families:  Richard K. and Bel Sutton, John W. and Kay Sutton, both of Ruston, and Stephen W. and Kay Ray Sutton of Coushatta, as well as step-son Cecil (Cobby) Bullock Jr.; five grandchildren (Chris Sutton, Timothy Sutton, Keith Sutton, Kenneth Sutton, and Scott Sutton), plus Tommy Bullock, Colby Bullock, and Shelby Bullock, and many great-grandchildren (Madison Sutton, Davis Sutton, Elise Sutton, Tyler Sutton, Brittany Gay, Kennedy Freese, Sarah Sutton, Parker Sutton, Kendall Sutton, and Emarie Sutton).

Special thanks to Premier Hospice (especially Jackie Wyatt and Erica Johnston) for their care over the last two plus years, and all the sweet ladies who sat with her during her illness over the past thirteen months, but especially Mrs. Janie Bowden and Mrs. Evelyn West Rushing, who both were with her on her journey home for the last thirteen months and became more than caregivers.

There will be a graveside visitation period starting at 11:00 AM, followed by the graveside service and burial beginning at 11:30 AM at Shady Grove Cemetery just west of Haynesville, Louisiana, on Tuesday, December 31, under the direction of Kilpatrick Funeral Home in Ruston.  Shady Grove Cemetery is located on land once owned by her Bond and Garrett grandparents and is situated a mile from the house in which Suewilla was born.  Memorials made in her name may be given to the Shady Grove Cemetery, Inc. or the charity of your choice.
