Pattie Jo (Cahill) Calton

Pattie Jo (Cahill) Calton of Barnett died on January 21, 2024, at the age of 78, but her caring and always willing-to-help disposition will never be forgotten. She passed at her oldest daughter's home in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, following a long life of adventures and a heroic battle with cancer. She was born on June 20, 1945, in Carrollton, Missouri, to Raymond Patrick Cahill and Cora Irene Cahill (Key). She had two daughters, 21 years apart, because she wanted to have one out of diapers before she had another one. She was so proud of her girls, a teacher, and a nurse. She and Bill, her late husband, were married for 35 years. They were the best of friends and worked in factories together, traveled to gun shows and flea markets, and spent hours sitting with a table of friends at coffee shops, mainly the Silver Saddle. They were always together and rarely ever had a disagreement. Their reunion in Heaven must have been magnificent. She would eat anything and was delighted to try the latest flavor of chips or candy bar. She loved saltwater taffy, Pepsi, Lay's Classic chips, and chocolate of all kinds. The only food she ever met she didn't like was cornbread. In her life, she valued history, photography, genealogy, crocheting, family, friends, and being a child of Christ. She worked for Fasco Motors for 25 years as a working leader. In her retirement, she volunteered for the Morgan County Historical Museum. Her incredible contributions lead the museum to name the genealogy room after her. She helped many individuals from near and far find family members to fill their family trees. She is survived by two daughters, Chris Jones and partner Ted Deckard of Sapulpa, Oklahoma, and Elizabeth Stevenson and husband Craig of Monon, Indiana; four grandchildren, Olivia Banks and husband Colton of Bixby, Oklahoma, Daniel Jones of Sapulpa, Oklahoma, Paisley Stevenson and Archer Stevenson of Monon, Indiana; three great-granddaughters, Brailey Banks and Oakleigh Banks of Bixby, Oklahoma, and Jerra Jones of Sapulpa, Oklahoma; many nieces and nephews; and other family and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, Bill Calton; her parents; and one brother, Bobby Bowen. The family will receive friends for a visitation from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm on Tuesday, January 30th, at the Kidwell-Garber Funeral Home in Versailles. A graveside service will be held following the visitation on Tuesday, January 30th, at 12:15 pm at Big Rock Cemetery in Barnett, with her beloved friend Willie Buckingham officiating. Arrangements are under the direction and care of the Kidwell-Garber Funeral Home of Versailles.
