Remembering the Sutton Family, grocery store
By Vickie Rhodehamel - Arcanum News for the week of February 22, 2021
Last year in the month of March, our life began to change dramatically due to the impending pandemic and all the changes that would come. Here in Arcanum, we lost our grocery store, Sutton’s Super Valu that had been a part of Arcanum since 1936. I’m sure that I am not the only one who misses the Sutton Family and the store that was more a part of our lives than we all realized. Didn’t you miss seeing Kirby in his Christmas suit and always saying “Hello and Merry Christmas” every time you entered into the store during the month of December? How many of you had one or more of your children work for the Sutton Family sometime throughout their high school years? We were fortunate enough to have two of our children have a part-time job the store during their growing up years.
