Reflections for Night Marshal Alexander Dotson Sutton

Even though I never got to meet you, our family has never let your memory fade. We’ve never let all the amazing things you did for your community and accomplishments be forgotten. I’m forever proud to say I have such an amazing great-great grand father. Whose ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten. Because of you and Papa Quick I am now a Police Officer. I hope you’re forever proud of me, looking over me & protecting me, and always remembering you are what inspired me to be who I am today. Love your granddaughter.

Rest in peace Marshal Sutton. Fifty -one years and a hero of law enforcement. I was wondering if you were related to actor Frank Sutton, famous for playing Sergeant Carter in Gomer Pyle USMC.

Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.
Thank you for your heroism.
GOD Bless

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 60th anniversary year of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. Rest In Peace.

I recently read an article about your sacrifice. As an veteran of Fort Leonard Wood, MO I honor your devotion to that community and to the citizens of Pulaski County. Rest easy "Pop" the many men you saw pass through those gates, who honored and respected you went on to do great things. We will keep the watch and remember you as our brother.
