Biography: Brian Howard Stebbins of Little Rock passed away on Thursday, March 4, 2021, at the age of 63. He was born June 26, 1957, to Charles Richard & Dolores Stebbins of Little Rock, who both preceded him in death.

Brian grew up in the Cloverdale neighborhood of Little Rock with his three brothers and graduated from McClellan High School in 1976. Following high school, Brian attended UALR and worked for Leisure Arts at its original headquarters location in Maumelle. It was there that he met his true love and future wife Pam Speaks and they married in 1983. Brian later worked at Democrat Printing & Lithograph and eventually founded Partners Men’s Clothing with good friend W.B. Loyd which was located at Pavilion in the Park.

In 1991, Brian and Pam were blessed with twins, Charles Garrett Stebbins & Katherine Dean Stebbins. As anyone with twins knows – life was never quite the same after Kate & Charles (Garrett) were born. But even with the adjustments and lack of sleep, Brian truly found his calling in being a wonderful Father to their twins – there was never a happier or more dedicated “Room Dad”, Scout Leader, Coach or shoulder to lean on than he was.

Brian is survived by his wife Pam and his two children, as well as his two brothers Charles Richard (Rick) Stebbins and his wife Donna of Phoenix, Arizona, and Robert Bruce Stebbins and his partner Mark Barr of Little Rock. His younger brother David Aaron Stebbins preceded him in death in 1991.

Brian will always be remembered as Uncle Brian by his seven nieces and one nephew: Laura Lindsey Stebbins of Tulsa, Oklahoma, Anna Caroline Stebbins of Little Rock, Jennifer Dolores Stebbins Van Allen & her husband Robert of Shelton, Washington, Paige Speaks of Greenwood, Arkansas, Evelyn Ardell Green & her husband Marty of Poyen, Arkansas, Melissa Stebbins Winnie & her husband Casey of Tacoma, Washington, Trey and Mandy McGrew of Houston, Texas, as well as many other beloved relatives and friends.
