KEVIN MICHEAL DUTTON
Kevin Micheal Dutton, 16, of Gainesville, passed out of this world on Oct. 19, 2012.
Kevin was born July 16, 1996, in Gainesville and spent the next six years being a superhero after which he branched out to clown suits and more elaborate costumes. He had low embarrassment and high intelligence and we all lost a great, creative, movie making, music making mind when he left us. Kevin believed in string theory and that there were other worlds than these. We can feel comforted that he is entertaining in an alternate universe right now, but we will mourn him here.
Kevin is survived by his parents, Logan and Catherine Crump of Gainesville; his brother, Alaster Haden Crump of Gainesville; his sister, Christina Marie of Chicago; grandparents, Jo Ellen Fisher and Mildred Crump of Gainesville and Clint and Patti Dutton of Midlothian; great-grandparents, Joe and Nell Ware of Callisburg and Bill Dutton of Woodbine; aunts and uncles, Cassandra Ball of Azusa, Calif., Alex and Amanda Waterhouse of Houston, Treven and Gloria Fisher of Gainesville, Elijah and Haley Fisher of Houston; cousins, Anson Rodriguez of Azusa, Calif., and Cecilia Waterhouse of Houston.
Kevin was preceded in death by great-grandparents, Troy and Irene Bryant and Barbara Wofford, all of Gainesville; and grandfather, Beecher Crump of Gainesville.
Graveside services will be held at the New Hope Cemetery Pavilion, near Mountain Springs, at 3 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 24, 2012, with the Rev. Hollis Parsons and Boyd Tatum officiating.
