Gary Lynn Eubank of Bryant passed away unexpectedly on May 2, 2025, at the age of 74.
Gary was born in North Little Rock on Nov. 16, 1950, to Pauline (Tomlin) and Clyde Eubank. After graduating from North Little Rock High School, Gary began a decades-long career as a master electrician, displaying a strong work ethic that served as an inspiration to his children and grandchildren.
An avid outdoorsman, Gary passed along his love of hunting and fishing to his son Joe. Many summers were spent hanging out at the swimming pool with his daughter Amy. He was a loving husband to his wife, Frances, for 38 years and a devoted "Poppa" who would do anything for his six grandchildren.
But it wasn't just family who were enriched by Gary's kindness and generosity. He was eager to help anyone who needed a hand or a friendly word, and anyone who came to know him came away a better person.
Gary was preceded in death by his parents, Pauline and Clyde; sisters: Dee Diffy (Ken) and Brenda Graham (Ricky); and brother Rick Eubank.
He is survived by his wife, Frances Eubank; daughter, Amy Reece (Zane); son, Joe Valdez; and grandchildren: Chloe and Trey Reece and Makayla, Nate, Emilio and Aurora Valdez; sister, Donna Hathcock (Jim); sister-in-law Mikki Eubank; and many family members and friends who love Gary and will miss him always.
