Paul Hatton, 83, of Fort Mill, SC passed away peacefully on May 25, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend, Paul lived a life with a deep appreciation for the outdoors.
Paul spent many years working as a skilled auto mechanic, a profession he took great pride in. An avid outdoorsman, he was happiest outdoors — whether bow hunting or just spending time in nature.
Above all, Paul cherished his family. He is survived by his loving wife of 60 years, Kathy; his daughter Jill and her partner Kellie; his daughter Holly and her husband Onur; and his grandson Alec, who brought him great pride and joy.
Paul will be remembered for his quiet strength, love of dogs, dependable nature, and the many memories shared with family and friends through the years. His presence will be deeply missed, but his legacy of love and hard work will live on in those who knew him.
Visitation will be held Monday, June 1, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. at McEwen Funeral Service -Pineville Chapel with funeral services to follow at 10:00 a.m.
