of Scott, AR
October 30, 1938 - November 25, 2019
Juston Eugene Minick of Scott, AR passed away on Monday, November 25, 2019 at the age of 81 years. He was a loving husband to his wife, Maebelle Holter Minick for almost 60 years. He was preceded in death by his infant daughter, Karen Sue Minick and survived by his 2 daughters, Holly Minick Benham (Randy) and Sheri Minick Handley (Trent).
Born October 30, 1938 to Vester and Vada Minick he was also preceded in death by them. The oldest of 3 boys, he is survived by brothers, Ferrell Minick (Janis), Gary Minick (Vickie) and one sister, Phyllis Akin (Charles); five grandchildren; Felicia Hope Benham May (David), Lauren Faith Benham Clinton (Jordan), Abby Grace Benham, Henry Handley and Juston Handley. He was blessed with five great-grandchildren of whom he took great pride and joy!
Juston was a brilliant man with a great sense of adventure and he loved to travel. He was a successful businessman and entrepreneur. He loved building RV's, trailers & could just about fix anything. He was a dreamer and had a great engineering mind to bring creations to life.
Juston was one of the most generous, compassionate men you would ever meet, consistently helping anyone in need and friendly to everyone he knew. He loved to visit with people and never met a stranger.
Along with his brother Ferrell they founded MinArk Pallet Company and later he formed Minick Enterprises with an idea of machines to repair pallets in which he held two patents. He was deeply devoted to his family.
As most who knew him well, he had been in a battle with Alzheimer's for 4 years. He has won his battle with Alzheimer's, victorious in heaven with loved ones who have gone before him. He was an asset to the community and his Church; he loved the Lord and has made the world a better place with his presence and his family's legacy.
The family will receive friends at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, November 30, 2019 in the chapel of Roller-Chenal Funeral Home, 13801 Chenal Parkway, Little Rock, AR 72211 with funeral service following at 11:00. Burial will be at Pinecrest Memorial Park in Alexander.

Maebelle you and the girls are in my prayers. Wayne and Brad were lucky enough to benefit from Justin’s brilliant pallet inventions. I like to think he and Brad have had a conversation already about that.

The one Minick I didn't have the pleasure to know. I knew Mr. Mimick, Ferrell and Gary. Prayers for the Minicks as you cherish his memory.

I first met Juston 14 yrs ago through his son in law Randy, my new fishing buddy. When i met him i recall how after about 30 seconds i felt like i had been a friend of his for years. A very kind man, wonderful crazy about his trophy wife Maebelle, and daughters, and grand kids. We had several Super Bowl Parties, birthdays, and meals together. Juston always had nice stuff to borrow, and always shared. I am glad i had opportunity to know him.

Mrs. Maebelle, Holly and Sheri all my prayers. So sorry for your loss.
He was no doubt one of the greatest men I ever knew. Still think back to all the things he taught me when I ran around Fourche cutting grass. How to fix my mower, sharpen my blades and so many other skills I learned from him.
All my Love and Prayers for you all!
