Ronald "Ronnie" Roy Boyles Jr., age 61, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Saturday, June 28, 2025. He was born on November 20, 1963, in Fort Smith, Arkansas, and was a beloved son of Dianna Louise (Grace) Boyles and the late Ronald Roy Boyles Sr. Growing up, Ronnie attended schools in Fort Smith and later held several jobs throughout the area over the years. He was also a proud veteran of the United States Army, serving his country with honor.
He will be remembered as a loving person with a caring heart, someone who would do anything for anybody. Ronnie is survived by his mother, Dianna Boyles; his daughter, Brandy Kass; and his siblings: Mary C. Morris and her spouse Bub, Debbie Cantrell and her spouse Terry, and Robert Boyles and his wife Gwyn. He is also survived by his seven nieces and two nephews, along with multiple cousins. His memory will live on through his many great-nieces, great-nephews, and great-great-nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his father, Ronald Roy Boyles Sr.; his sister, Tina (Boyles) Felt; three aunts; three uncles; and his nephew, Daniel Boyles; and his great-great nephew, Waylon Ray Brown.
