of Leslie, AR
March 10, 1955 - November 12, 2025
Kenneth Bradley Treece, age 70, of Leslie, Arkansas passed away suddenly on November 12, 2025. He was born in Harrison, Arkansas on March 10, 1955 to Jasper Wayne and Joyce Cates Treece. He was a 1973 graduate of Leslie High School where he excelled in basketball.
Brad was known for his quick wit and gift for storytelling - a talent he developed early in life by quietly listening to the adults around him. He spent a lifetime retelling their best tales.
He worked many years hanging sheetrock and was widely respected for his skill and craftsmanship. His life was marked by struggles, yet those who knew him best saw the heart beneath the hardship. He was a wanderer at times, but returned again and again to the faith he had inherited from generations of believers in Jesus Christ as their Savior.
Brad is survived by a daughter, Hannah Hayes (Wallace), a sister Debbie Thompson (E. Jan) of Searcy, a brother, Eddie Treece (Tammy) of Marshall and a circle of family and friends who will miss his big heart and humor, and of course, the countless stories only he could tell.
He is preceded in death by his parents.
Graveside services for Brad will be 11:00 AM Wednesday, November 19, 2025 At East Lawn Cemetery in Marshall, Arkansas.

Ole Brad was my best friend in school and we spent hours together. After games we'd ride around in his 40 Plymouth, drink root beer and talk and laugh until we had to go home. I'm gonna miss him and the times we had back then. Rest in peace my friend, Gordon
