Don Patton was born April 19, 1954, in Lewiston, Idaho. He passed away Aug. 3, 3021, at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Don lived in Kingston, Idaho, and was retired.

Don went to school in St. Maries, Idaho, and graduated high school there in 1973.

Don was preceded in death by his parents, Roy and Lois Patton; beloved brother Doug Patton and companion Bonnie O'Neil.

Don is survived by daughter Jamie Patton; granddaughter Libby; son Donny (Katie) Patton; grandson Braiden; and granddaughters Serena and Gracie; sister Debbie Yeoman (referred to fondly as "womb mate" by Don); nephew David Yeoman; niece Jimmie Yeoman; great-nephews Kaleb and Kam; brother Dan Patton (companion Laurie Phillips); niece Kara (Jon) Smith; great-nieces Schylar and Olivia; nephew Derek Patton; sister-in-law Johanna (Doug) Patton; nephew Seth (Jess) Patton; great-nephews Layten and Knoxen; niece Michele (Casey) McKinnon; great-nephews Beckett and Colter; stepchildren Tomi, Tim Chris and JB O'Neil; and Amber Coberly and their children.

Don enjoyed horseback riding but moved on to four-wheeling on his side-by-side. Scratching lottery tickets in his spare time. The utmost joy in his life though was gossip, drama, but most of all stirring the pot.

A celebration of life will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 28, 2021, at the Wheel Bar in Smelterville, Idaho. Some of Don's favorite dishes will be served. If you know of one, please feel free to bring it.
