Let's talk about that dash in the middle of those dates. William was born to Carolyn and Rickey Tutor, a Christmas gift only God could deliver. His life started like most kids the apple of moms eyes the pride of his daddy.

Five short years later that kid wanted a horse.. into our lives entered Peaches... and the world changed.. he spent day after day riding and perfecting being a Cowboy.. he loved hunting he loved to go fishing.. he won countless trophies, belt buckles and saddles as he conquered being a Cowboy.

In 2013 he was destroyed when his dad, Rickey, left this world.. he went on to get a couple jobs and decided putting up medal building was his occupation.. making countless friends along the way.

As fate to often goes the demons of lost love followed him through his adulthood. On October 3rd God released him from the chains holding him down.. he was set free. He left behind his big brother, Casey Wayne Tutor, his mom, Carolyn Tutor Morgan (Rodney), a beautiful baby girl, Charleigh Grace (Summer), and William's grandmother, Jean Hughes Chandler. Countless uncles, aunts and cousins. He left us all with smiles and laughter along the way with his big heart and larger than life personality.

William was met at the Gates of heaven by his Father Rickey Dean Tutor, great grandparents: William and Grace Hughes, Doyle and Pauline Melton, Rev. Artis and Jimmy Burt Tutor, John and Opal Clark. Along with his grandparents RV and Wayne Tutor, Bernice Crowson Tutor, Raymond Hughes, Beth and Billy Hardin.

Services to honor and remember his life and legacy will be announced at a later date.

William will be laid to rest with his family at the Oak Springs Cemetery on the private school road.

The family ask for prayer as we navigate through this difficult time and prepare to say the goodbye that we weren't expecting to say.. our families want to thank everyone for the out pouring of love we have felt during this devastating loss and ask for continued prayers... Thank You All..

In lieu of flowers the family request that any contributions be made to Parker Memorial Funeral Home.

Parker Memorial is honored to be of service to the Tutor family during this difficult season of life.
