Johnny Breeding

We are sad to announce the passing of Johnny Breeding. On the morning of August 5th, he left us for other endeavors. He will be missed by all.

Johnny Wendell Breeding was born December 13, 1949, in Hope, Arkansas. He was the pride and joy of his parents, Coy Breeding and Abbie Hutchins Breeding. Johnny was a devoted husband, loving father and doting grandfather.

His passions included welding, creating metal works, cooking smoked meats and fishing. He could build anything out of metal just by looking at a picture. He created many items from simple cooking pots for his chili cooking and durable tractor seat bar stools to extravagant fences with beautiful decorative entry gates. One other passion was his love of a good joke. He was always looking for an opportunity to get someone with his quick wit. He even loved the rare occasion when the joke turned around on him. He would take it in stride, and everyone would get a good laugh.

Johnny is preceded in death by his parents Coy and Abbie Breeding. He leaves behind his wife of 30 years, Phyllis Breeding. He also leaves behind a daughter, Denyse (Roger) McLelland of Farmington, Arkansas; sons, Justin Breeding of Louisiana and Kevin (Reanna) Key of Columbus Arkansas. He also leaves behind two granddaughters, two grandsons, two great-grandchildren and numerous friends. All will cherish his legacy of devotion, love and laughter.

Services to be at later date.

Arrangements are entrusted to Tri-State Cremation and Funeral Services.
