He was 90 years old. Charles was the son of Paul and Maple Sutton - born in Brunot, Missouri in his grandmother's home.

He then went to Southern Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky where he obtained a Masters of Theology before going into full time pastorate. He met Dorritt Botkin from his home area in Southeastern Missouri and they married August 29, 1958 while he was still in seminary. Charles and Dorritt then began their ministry at a church in Kentucky but it was not long and he was called to the First Baptist Church in Harrisonville, Mo. He served 35 years loving and shepherding this congregation. While in Harrisonville he and Dorritt raised two sons, built a home and had a farm with registered Angus cattle. In retirement he enjoyed his beloved black Angus cattle, his wife and grandchildren.
