MHS class of 66 has lost a classmate

Chip (LB) Sutton passed away today (2/12/14) in Maryville.
Jan called to tell me he had been in a nursing home since
his Mother died. 

Jan and I reminisced about our days in the 4th grade (Mrs. Jackson)
at Sam Houston and how all of us including Chip were rather much
terrorized by the woman.  Jan reminded me of the time she called
Chip LB and he corrected her by politely saying he would rather be
called Chip.  Mrs. Jackson returned the request by spanking him. 

He was retired from the military, a retired elementary teacher, taught water aerobics
in Maryville at Olympia Health Club and also created
 dried flower arrangements that were sold in Townsend.

While at  MHS he was a member of the band and several other
organizations.  Chip took care of his mother for years and they were
living together when both of them went to the nursing homes.  She died almost
a year ago.

If you go on line the Maryville Daily Times should have
the funeral arrangements

tomorrow.

COME SEE COACH WILSON

Our coach, some of us from Jr. High on, Ted Wilson is going to be in Maryville and there is going to be a reception (no not with all the food and stuff) for him in the lunch room at Maryvile High School. It will be Thursday Aug. 29th at 5 PM. After, MHS will be practicing under the lights on the new field that most of us have yet to see. The next night, MHS will beat Alcoa. Coach is reportedly 79 but that is hard to believe seeing how the members of the class of 66 have yet to hit the big 40 mark! Do come see him, and invite anyone who was influenced by him to join us! PS Been finding a ton of old pictures of Maryville on line and this is a good time to include some of them.
