Millard Loden Obituary
Sonny was a very skilled person and had talent to do most any job. He never minded working and seemed to enjoy it. Never being one to sit around, he had honey bees, was always a guitar player expanded to the banjo and piano. He was known as our local "Merle" as he knew nearly all his songs. His joy was to play with his sons and later go to bluegrass festival events.
He leaves behind his wife, Barbara Parham Loden; sons, Alan Loden (Heather) and Kelby Loden (Lisa); grandchildren, Ethan Loden, Evan Loden, Luke Loden, and Alyssa Loden Cable (Andrew).
He was preceded in death by Syble Loden Benson, Edith Loden Whitten, Charlie Mae Loden Hester, Travis Loden, Betty Jean Cook, Farrar Loden, Jerry Loden, and Ramona Gardner.
A visitation for family and friends will be held Friday, July 25, 2025 at 9:00 AM at EE Pickle Funeral Home. A Celebration Of Life Service will be held at 11:00 AM at EE Pickle Funeral Home in Amory with Bro. Philip Hathcock and Bro. Leslie Grant, and Bro. Jonathan Godsey officiating. Pallbearers will be Jamie Stanford, Mike Loden, Perry Newton, Andy Cook, Steve Butler, Jordan Stanford, Matt Butler, and Shane Grant. Burial will be in Haughton Memorial Park.
Special thanks to Gentiva Hospice, especially Abby, Lindsey, and Monica.
