Donald James “Bottles” Boutwell, 83, passed away peacefully Saturday, March 21st, 2026 at his home.
Born February 12th, 1943, to Dale and Rosie Lee Boutwell in Dover, Oklahoma, Donald lived most of his life in Kingfisher, Oklahoma.
Donald was a loving dad, papa, brother and friend; a talented musician and a skilled mechanic.

Donald built a house and moved to Yukon, Oklahoma in 2000, where he eventually retired, but never gave up his favorite hobby of keeping the place looking nice.
Donald will be long loved and remembered by family and friends for his high energy, strong work ethic, and dependability, along with his down-to-earth, honest, what-you-see-is-what-you-get manner.
Donald was preceded in death by both parents; two brothers, Dale Lee Boutwell and Clyde Dale Boutwell; one sister, Linda Kay Wright.
He is survived by his two sons, Bret (Desiree) Boutwell of Claremore, Oklahoma and Rex (Kimberly) Boutwell of Yukon, Oklahoma; two grandchildren, Brayden Boutwell and Kenslie (Colbie) Smith, both of Claremore, Oklahoma; three sisters, Edna Eeds, Shirley Stitt and Diane Rosen; along with numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and many friends.
