Biography: Wayne Haydon, a lifelong resident of Little Rock, Arkansas, passed away on February 25, 2025, at the age of 67. Born on July 21, 1957, to Robert and Carol Ann Haydon, he dedicated his life to his family, his work, and his love of the outdoors.

Wayne built a successful career in home building, leaving a lasting legacy through the craftsmanship and dedication he poured into each project. When he wasn’t working, he found joy in hunting, fishing, and riding ATVs & motorcycles, always making time to enjoy the natural beauty of Arkansas. More than anything, he cherished time spent with his family and friends, creating countless memories that will be treasured forever.

He is survived by his loving mother, Carol A. Haydon; his sister, Jayne H. Smith, and her husband, Scott Smith; his nephew, Haydon S. Smith (wife, Whitney); his niece, Audrey Smith Johnson (husband, Lucas Johnson); many beloved cousins and lifelong neighbors. He was preceded in death by his father, Robert Haydon.

Wayne’s kindness, strength, and dedication to those he loved will be deeply missed. His legacy will live on in the homes he built and in the hearts of all who knew him.

A graveside ceremony will be held Friday February 28, 2025, at 12pm, at Roselawn Cemetery, Little Rock Arkansas.

May he rest in peace, forever remembered for his warmth, generosity, and the love he shared. Arrangements are under the direction of RuebelFuneralHome.com

I am so very saddened to hear of Wayne’s passing. We lost touch when I moved away from Little Rock several years ago, but he will always be on my short list of all-time Best Friends. Wayne was generous with his time and talents, and we shared many good times together. I loved his family as well - great people! Wayne will be missed.

So sad to learn today of another whose death makes my world seem empty. Wayne was one who was endlessly understanding and kind with me. His heart is always with us since he was a true master of life. I feel grateful beyond measure that he was so full of dignity and quiet wisdom. Recalling his distinctive temperament warms my heart.

Wayne & I had lunch a few weeks ago. We talk about getting old , Duck hunting, are trip to Daytona 500, the girls we chased and did't catch, the motorcycle adventures. Good times with a good friend. I will always remember Wayne's strong laugh and his abrupt answer when you said something that would stir him up. LOL
Wayne a friend you could count on he was there for my entire family over the years. I will miss you brother.

Condolences to the family. Wayne and I were swim team partners at Miller Swim Gym, became fast friends, and had many great times together. I reconnected with him a few years ago, and I am so grateful for that visit. What a great guy. He will be missed.
