Royce C. Ward, 88, of North Little Rock, Arkansas passed away on Monday, August 15, 2022. He was born March 12, 1934 in Gould, Arkansas to the late Larkin and Annie Mae Ward.

Royce was a Godly man who worked tirelessly to be the ultimate provider for his family. He was a wonderful husband, devoted to the life his wife and he had built together. When he did make time for himself, it was spent singing and playing country songs on his guitar. A gift which God has passed down throughout his family. As a skilled craftsman, Royce enjoyed woodworking and other types of projects in his personal shop.

He is survived by his son, Bobby Ward and his wife, LaNae Ward; grandchildren, Jessica Hodges and her husband, Aaron Hodges, Justin Ward, Cody Ward and Caleb Ward; great-grandchildren, Evelyn Belt and Joel Hodges; sister, Phoebe Ann Eaton and a host of extended family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his wife, Barbara Ward; parents, Larkin and Annie Ward; five brothers and one sister.
