Jerry Don Haynes

A Celebration of Life Service for Jerry Don Haynes, 70, Foley, Alabama, will be held from 1:00 until 3:00 p.m., Wednesday, January 3, 2024, at Shiloh Church, Thayer, Missouri.

Mr. Haynes passed away Wednesday, December 27, 2023, at Baptist Health Medical Center, Little Rock, Arkansas, surrounded by his children and wife, Joy.  

He was born September 5, 1953, at Imboden, Arkansas, to Herschel and Geraldine Haynes.  Jerry served his community for several years s a police officer; after his retirement you could always find him in his shop woodworking or at any hole of water with a fishing pole in his hand.  Fighting and catching a bull red was such excitement for him.  Jerry was ornery and always making jokes.  He loved his wife, kids and grandkids with all his heart.  Jerry was loved by all that knew him; he never knew a stranger and was always lending a helping hand.  For Jerry, a beer and a chat could fix any kind of problem.

He is survived by his wife, Joyce Haynes, Foley, Alabama; two sons, Brandon Haynes and wife, Nicole, Thayer, Missouri and Brad Haynes and wife, Alicia, Springfield, Missouri; two step-children, Heather Wallace and husband, Blake, Foley, Alabama and  Kenneth Green and wife, Caprice, Grand Island, Nebraska; eleven grandchildren, Hattie, Hudson, Hallie, Haven, Ashelyn, Braden, Harbor, Cove, Joshua, Hope and Alexis; two great-grandchildren; one brother, Bruce Haynes and wife, Cathy, Buffalo, Missouri; and several nieces, nephews and extended family. 

His parents and seven brothers, Kenneth, Danny, Roger, Randy, Joe, Mike and Steve Haynes, preceded him in death.
