José "Joe" Patino
December 12, 1953 — January 8, 2021
José G. Patino, age 67, of Greenville, passed away on Friday, January 8, 2021 at Spectrum Health Blodgett in Grand Rapids.
Joe dedicated his life to serving and protecting others. For 36 years he worked for the Montcalm County Sheriff’s Department retiring as a Detective Lieutenant, during that time he also worked for the Edmore Police Department. After his retirement from the Sheriff’s office, Joe served as the Chief of Police for the City of Stanton, retiring this past September. He was a member of the Fraternal Order of Police and Command Officers Association of Michigan.
When Joe wasn’t working, he enjoyed spending his time being outdoors and going hunting and fishing. Joe was also a lifetime member of the North American Hunting Club, Ducks Unlimited, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, National Turkey Federation and the Michigan United Conservation Club. However, the biggest passion in Joe’s life was his family, especially his grandchildren and he will be greatly missed by everyone.
