Trina Sutton, 53, of Yorktown, VA, passed away on October 13, 2022 after a 2 week battle with sepsis from pneumonia and an unfortunate, sudden heart attack.

Trina was born on August 2nd, 1969, to Charlotte Trainham-Lewis and Timothy Howe Lewis in Newport News, VA at Riverside Hospital. She graduated from Bethel High School in 1987. After graduation, she landed her first job in Retail at Stuart's for 3 years.

In 1986, she met Stephen Eugene Sutton, and they wed in 1989, going on to have 3 children, Ryan Jamison Sutton, Trevor Chase Sutton, and Austin Reed Sutton.

When Trina had her first son Ryan, she decided to remain at work full-time and still maintain supermom status. She loved her children more than anything in this world and that truth remained until her last day. She was incredibly organized and neat almost to a fault, but utilized that to her advantage in every possible circumstance. As a skilled bookkeeper, she kept everything orderly, numbered and always treated her clients with respect. Even through the hard times, she always found humor in everything, and she had an instantly recognizable laugh. Throughout her life, she made very good friends, and even through the ups and downs with those friends she always cared for them with everything she had as she did her own family. In fact they were her family and she loved them very much. Even when she was battling her own inner demons, she still held her friends close to her heart. Trina was at heart a very festive person, she loved holidays with family and always wanted the most out of each respective holiday. She loved cooking, baking and always made everything festive for the holiday season. Her parents made the holidays special for her brother and herself when they were young, especially Christmas, and she carried that with her throughout her life, and always made those experiences special for her children. In true Trina fashion, she did not want to be mourned, she wanted everyone to look back at her life, laugh about the good times, and to not dwell on her passing. As a mother, a daughter, a sister and a friend, she will be missed dearly.
