Robert Wayne Leathers, 75, of Paris, formerly of McLean, passed away Wednesday, September 21, 2022, at his home.

A memorial service will be held in McLean, Texas on October 8th at 3:30 p.m., with Thacker Haynes officiating.

Mr. Leathers, the son of Joe Robert Leathers and Joane Bullard Leathers, was born May 30, 1947, in Clarendon, Texas. He grew up on a farm and was a farmer at heart. He married the love of his life, Amanda Dalton Leathers, on May 27, 1967, and quickly moved her to Dallas where he was a Police Officer with the Dallas Police Department. He was drafted into the United States Army, where he served as a Military Policeman and he and Amanda moved to Ft. Greely, Delta Junction, Alaska, where they spent two beautifully blessed years. After his service, they returned to Dallas and began their family. The call back to farming came shortly after the birth of their son, and they made the move back to the Panhandle of Texas where they spent the majority of their lives and raised their children together.

Wayne was a hard worker and spent many years at Halliburton Oil Service but was able to retire early and again the call to farming and working on the tractor was in his heart. He loved being on his John Deere tractor ~ he would landscape, mow and do dirt work ~ it truly brought joy to his heart! Wayne loved his community and was always serving. For many years he would plow, plant and water a community garden in McLean – where he would offer the community all the vegetables they could pick. As much as he loved his community, his love for his family was even greater! He loved his wife of 55 years, his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren with all his heart. His love for the Lord was with all of his heart, mind & soul! Wayne was a member of the First United Methodist Church in McLean. He would want everyone to know how important it is to have a relationship with Jesus. He loved the Lord and lived a life where he loved others well! Matthew 22:37-39.

He is survived by his wife, Amanda Dalton Leathers, two children, Brandon Leathers & wife Carla, and Jennifer Robin Mann & husband Grant, grandchildren, Haley Jones & husband Isaac, Gabby Leathers, Kory Carmon, Kameron Carmon, KaLeigh Welch, Karli Dauernheim, Krisanna Spillman, Sarah Mann, Paul Mann, and Matthew Mann, great grandchildren, Emily Jones, Maggie Jones, Gavin Carmon, Alexis Carmon, Owen Carmon, Nolan Carmon, Zoey Carmon, Ezra Dauernheim, and Eliana Welch, and two siblings, Beverly Hood and Joe Leathers & wife Louise along with numerous nieces & nephews and a host of friends.
