Mr. Walter Richard Pyles "Paw-Paw Richard", age 63, of Hampton, Georgia, passed away unexpectedly on December 11, 2025, surrounded by his beloved family. He was born on November 27, 1962, in Griffin, Georgia to Mr. Franklin and Emily Pyles. Mr. Pyles was a loving and dedicated son, brother, husband, father, grandpaw and a friend to all that knew him. Happiness for him, was spending time with his large family, doting on his grandchildren, and turning out his famous tacos and tea on "Saddle up Saturday's and Sensational Sunday's, while "Pickle" his beloved 140 lb. blue pit, waiting patiently for a delectable morsel to come her way. He possessed a great sense of humor and was always carrying on with family and friends. He was an avid lover of Harley Davidson motorcycles and enjoyed the wind in his hair while riding free, while blasting "I should have been a cowboy". Mr. Pyles leaves behind to cherish his memory, his loving wife, devoted children, his precious mother, beloved grandchildren, endearing siblings, as well as a host of other loving family and friends. Services honoring the life of Walter Richard Pyles, are to be announced at a later date.
