LARRY BEARDEN, 66, a beloved husband, father,
brother, & friend, passed away on June 2, 2024, after
a brave battle with lung cancer. He was born Oct. 5,
1957 in Ranger, TX to Jack & Peggy Bearden. Larry
attended Ranger High School in the Class of 1976.
Throughout his life, Larry was known for his many roles
- from a "golden glove" boxer, rodeo clown, bull rider,
to a welder, drummer in a band, and even as the president
of a motorcycle club. However, more than these titles,
Larry will be remembered for his genuine love for his
family and friends.
Larry leaves behind his wife Paige Bearden of 34 years,
his son Trinity Bearden of Wingate TX, daughter Kelly
Kitchens, and his cherished granddaughter Kelby Kitchens
of Abilene TX. He is also survived by his sister Tracy
and her husband James Casey (both of RHS-1986) of New
London TX, his brother Mark (RHS-1988) and his wife

nephews, and many friends. He is now reunited with his
parents Jack & Peggy Bearden, his sister Debbie Bearden
Vinson (RHS-1975), and grandparents in eternal peace.
