Robert Lyle (Bob) Naylor, 90, of West Memphis died June 15, 2022. He was born on February 10, 1932, in Memphis, TN to Lyle Otis and Gracie Naylor. Retired, he was a banker for over 30 years, a funeral director for 15 years and a US Air Force veteran.

Bob donated his time and talents by working with the Crittenden County chapter of the American Red Cross and Crittenden County Search and Rescue in his younger days. He spent his later years caring for Molly as she battled Alzheimer's disease. He always found time to be present in the lives of his grandchildren.
