Alan Orton Obituary
Alan "Al" Dale Orton, 65, beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother, of Pinehurst, ID and formerly of Lewiston, ID, passed away November 4, 2024 at his home. Alan was born on July, 28, 1959, in Frankfort, Germany, a son of the late Ronald Orton and Anneliese (Mache) Orton.
When Alan was a child, his family moved to Lewiston, ID where he grew up with his two loving brothers by his side, Mike and Ronnie Orton. Alan met his forever wife, Sheila Hazelbaker, and the two were married on June, 6th, 1981 in Lewiston. Alan and Sheila had 3 children: Kyle, Shane, and Ryanne.
Alan was a good hard working man who loved his family, camping, doing puzzles, riding four wheelers, watching Seahawk games, and loving on his three dogs. He could make anyone laugh and enjoyed bringing light to people's lives. He will be forever missed and loved by his family.
