Flinn Archer Echols, 66, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, December 22, 2019. Flinn was born September 28, 1953, in Des Arc, Arkansas, to Clydean (Clanton) and Silas Britton Echols. He grew up in Leslie, AR, with a sister (Sherry) and 3 brothers (Randall, Tom and David).
Flinn was known to be a man of few words. He was a dedicated family man, a hard-worker, and enjoyed living life to the fullest. He was an active member of the Boilermakers Union, Local 69, for over 30 years. He was a faithful follower of Jesus in the First United Methodist Church of Conway and enjoyed being a member of the Koinoia Sunday School class.

He is survived by his wife, Dayna, of 38 years.

Life will never be the same without him and he is already greatly missed.
Visitation will be at 12pm, Thursday, December 26, 2019, with funeral service following at 1pm at Roller-McNutt Funeral Home in Conway. Entombment will follow at Crestlawn Mausoleum.
