John Houston Barron

It is with profound sadness that we announce the tragic passing of John Houston Barron, 69 on October 9th, 2024. John was a beloved Father, Brother, Uncle and Friend, who touched the lives of everyone he met with kindness, warmth, and generosity. He left us too soon, and the unexpected loss has left a deep void in the hearts of his family.

He is preceded in death by his Parents, Grandfather Houston Whitfield, Brother-in-law Dallas Stricklin and Wife Cathy Barron. 


John is survived by his Daughter Jessica (Barron) Pauley of Maumelle. One Brother Michael Barron and Wife, Cindy of North Little Rock; two Sisters Elizabeth Stricklin of North Little Rock and Melody Barron McBride, of Memphis; one grandchild Gavin Pauley and one great grandchild Dakota Pauley; Beloved Nieces and Nephews Andrea Heintzen, Morgan Barron, Alicia Warriner, Joshua, Joseph and Jonathan Stricklin, and Carly McBride.


Visitation will begin at 6:00 PM, followed by a Memorial Service at 7:00 PM, Wednesday, October 16, 2024 at Smith North Little Rock Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to be made to the Catholic High Foundation.
