It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Dina Patton on November 5, 2026, just three days shy of her 70th birthday, following a courageous battle with lung cancer.
Raised in Beirut, Lebanon, Dina was a truly remarkable woman with a bubbly personality, a warm heart, and a love for life that touched everyone she met. She never knew a stranger, and anyone fortunate enough to have known her would tell you that she left a little piece of her spirit with everyone she encountered.
Dina took great pride in her Lebanese heritage, sharing her traditions, wonderful Mediterranean cooking, and stories of her childhood with those she loved. She enjoyed traveling the world, meeting new people, and spending peaceful moments tending to her garden.
Above all, Dina treasured her family. She shared nearly 50 wonderful years of marriage with her loving husband, David, building a lifetime of memories, love, and devotion together. She was a devoted mother to her son, Shawn, and her late daughter, Sandra, and a proud grandmother to her beloved grandson, Dakota, whom she adored and cherished beyond words.
Dina was preceded in death by her beloved daughter, Sandra. While her passing leaves an emptiness in our hearts, we find peace and comfort in knowing that mother and daughter are together once again.
Dina will be remembered for her beautiful spirit, her kindness, her laughter, and the unconditional love she gave so freely. Her memory will live on in the hearts of her family, friends, and the countless people whose lives she touched around the world.
Though we can no longer see her smile or hear her laughter, we know she will always be near. And whenever a butterfly crosses our path, we will smile, knowing it's Mom stopping by to say hello.
A celebration of Dina's life will be held at a later date, with details to be announced.
