Slade Alan Yarbrough

July 8, 1991 – June 4, 2024

In loving memory of Slade Alan Yarbrough, a compassionate and generous soul, who departed from us far too soon.

As a devoted father, son and brother, he exemplified love and selflessness in all he did.  Despite living a hard life, he recently made a significant change for the better, demonstrating his incredible resilience and determination.  His ability to overcome and transform his life was an inspiration to all who knew and loved him.  He embodied love, kindness, and perseverance.

He leaves behind his only child, Ella Ashelle Yarbrough, age 13, along with his Father, Dwayne Yarbrough and his Mother, Leadra Orr, and one brother, John Wesley Chancellor, a nephew, Cypress, his maternal Grandmother, Glenna Orr and many aunts, uncles, cousins and beloved friends.

He will be deeply missed by his family, friends and all whose lives he touched.

May he rest in peace, his spirit forever cherished in our hearts.
