Michael "Mike" Leaton

Michael "Mike" Leaton, age 64, of Conway, Arkansas, passed away on Dec. 31, 2025.

Mike was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and friend whose life was defined by hard work and deep love for his family. He spent more than 40 years building a respected career in the print and mail industry, taking pride in doing things the right way and providing for those he loved.

Outside of work, Mike had a talent for fixing almost anything and was always willing to lend his skills. He enjoyed country music, karaoke with family and friends, horseracing, cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals and spending time on the lake.

Above all else, Mike cherished his family. He is survived by the love of his life, Kim Leaton; his children, Justin Leaton (Amber) and Jessica Hutchison (Johnny); his parents, Ruth and Roger Leaton; his siblings, Kelly Meigs (Michael) and Christopher Leaton (Jennifer); his grandchildren, Bennett and Amelia Leaton and Owen and Aspen Hutchison; and many extended family members.

Mike will be remembered for his steady presence and greatly missed by all who knew him. There will be a visitation held on Jan. 9, 2026, at Roller-McNutt Funeral Home in Conway, Arkansas, starting at 2 p.m., followed by a 3 p.m. memorial service.
