Donnie "Big Daddy" Patterson, Sr., age 62 of Altus, Oklahoma, passed away Thursday, November 22, 2018 at Jackson County Memorial Hospital in Altus.

Donnie was born in Wichita, Kansas on April 14, 1956 to his mother Dorothy Patterson. Donnie grew up in Altus and was a graduate of the Class of 1974 from Altus High School. Right after high school Donnie enlisted into the United States Army and served his country for over fourteen years before receiving an honorable discharge. On May 19, 1975 Donnie married Myra Neal in Vernon, Texas and they have enjoyed over 43 years of marriage together. During his military career, Donnie and family were stationed at numerous military outposts including; Fort Hood, Texas, Fort Polk, Louisiana, Mannheim, Germany, the Panama Canal Zone, Fort Benning, Georgia, and Korea. He moved back home to Altus in the early 90's where he worked for the Bar-S company and later went to work for the City Altus in the Sanitation Department and he retired in 2013. He was a member of the Macedonia Baptist Church in Altus and a member of the Mason's. Donnie enjoyed fishing, OU sports, the Dallas Cowboys, and he was known for keeping a well-manicured lawn. But the most important part of Donnie's life was family.
