Bryan Keith Slayton, 60 years of age, left this world on Wednesday, April 24, 2024. He was born November 4, 1963, in Paragould, AR, to Wendal and Pat Slayton.
Keith, as everyone knew him by, loved to fish and hunt every chance he got. He loved the outdoors. He enjoyed helping others in any way he could. If he saw someone with car trouble, he would stop. If he found out that his family needed something, he would show up ready to help. If there were someone walking on the side on the road, he would be willing to give them a ride. He spent nine years in the Army and was stationed in different parts of the country including Kentucky, Colorado, Germany, Saudi Arabia, and Louisiana. He was also stationed in Kuwait during the Gulf War. He received several medals, but the one he was most proud of was the Sharp Shooter.
Keith is survived by his mother, Pat Slayton- Price of Oak Grove, AR; sons, Trent Slayton (Amanda) of Oak Grove, AR, John Slayton of Paragould, AR, Tyler Slayton of Paragould, AR; brothers, Roger Slayton (Mary) of Paragould, AR, Brian Slayton of Little Rock, AR, sister, Lana Snyder (Dale) of Gainesville, AR; grandchildren, Victoria Slayton, Thomas Slayton, Maverick Slayton; girlfriend, Rose Martin; and a host of other family and friends.
The family will receive friends on Friday, May 3, from 10:00 a.m. until service time at Phillips Funeral Home. The funeral service will begin at 11:00 a.m. at Phillips Funeral Home with Dale Snyder officiating. Burial will follow at Pine Log Cemetery.
