Donald Barton Obituary
Born May 6, 1958, in Monroe, he was the son of Donald Barton Sr. and Sandra (Eder) Barton. Donald attended Jefferson High School and was a member of the class of 1976. For more than 30 years, he made his living working for Ford Motor Company.
Donald was a member of the National Rifle Association and an avid fan of both Michigan State and the Monroe Titans. He loved spending time with his grandchildren and took great pride attending all of their sporting events. It was his character to help anyone in need and in his spare time he enjoyed hunting and fishing.
To cherish his memory, Donald leaves his parents, Donald and Sandra Barton of Monroe, MI; two sons: Michael (Marlene) Barton of Newport, MI, and Jeremy Barton of Monroe, MI; a sister, Deborah (Kevin) Sipe; a brother, Dennis Barton (Ginny Rose); and Four grandchildren: Zachary Martin, Hunter Barton, Hailey Barton and Braxton Warren.
