Dee L. Patton

Dee Laverne Patton 83, was born April 15, 1938 to Ernest and Marie (Moore) Patton in Phillipsburg, Missouri. He graduated from Phillipsburg High School in 1956. He worked most of his life as a salesman and never met a stranger.

He enjoyed hunting, gardening, watching NASCAR races, mowing the lawn, and doing his own carpenter work. He was a friend to all and the definition of a good neighbor. He loved his family and enjoyed trips with them to Colorado, Disney, Branson, and cruising all over the world. He was proud that he had been to all but one state, which would explain why he could get you anywhere in the United States with no GPS or map.

He is survived by is wife, Lois of 62 years, two children: Deanna and Kevin, one granddaughter Brittney, his precious granddog, Lilo, sister Fern, and special niece Connie.

He is preceded in death by his parents, baby brother Gary, sister-in-laws and brother-in-laws, and many sweet friends.
