Dewey grew up in Whitefish and graduated from Whitefish High School. He worked at the Columbia Falls Aluminum Co. for 25 years until he was disabled and then retired.

As a young man, Dewey loved to ski on Big Mountain and learned how to box. He always loved a good boxing match.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents Lloyd Murphy and Minnie Mae Murphy-Dunn, Dewey Lee Bacon Sr. and Enid Bacon-Gregg.

He is survived by his wife Donna; sons Travis and Michael Bacon; stepchildren Kelley Kercher, Kathy Park and Joshua Kercher; parents Dewey and Dorothy Bacon; brothers Allan and Randi Bacon, and John and Jan Bacon and their children; several aunts, uncles and cousins; and many brothers and sisters of the heart.

At this time, there are no memorials planned. “Just remember the good times you had with him.”
