Larry Easterling Obituary
Larry dedicated over 30 years to his career in commercial roofing, earning the respect and admiration of his colleagues and clients. His work ethic, integrity, and kindness left a lasting impact on everyone he encountered.
Outside of his professional life, Larry was passionate about serving in his church and often spending his free time playing golf and hunting. He was an active member of First Baptist Church in Benton, volunteering with the 4-year-old Sunday school class and always ready to help those in need.
Larry is survived by his beloved wife, Ann; his brother William Easterling; his sister Linda Lowry; his children, Chris Easterling and Mandy Thomson; his stepchildren, Randi Mackey, Chris Coleman, and J.J. Coleman; his 14 grandchildren, Casey, Caitlyn, Cally, Tyler, Trenton, Claire, Caleb, Jax, Grace, Abbey, Maddox, Jack, Beckett, and Will; and his great-grandchildren, Matty and Remi.
He will be remembered for his warm smile, generous spirit, and the countless lives he touched.
