Justin Lynn Coots, age 37, of Des Arc passed away Friday morning, February 16, 2024, in Lonoke, Arkansas.

Justin was born August 17, 1987, to Nanette Cecelia Newton and Lynnie Coots.  During his life he worked as a carpenter by trade and loved to fish as a hobby.

He was preceded by his mother Nan, grandfather C.E. Newton and grandparents, all from the Des Arc area.

Survivors are his stepfather Robert Johnson, grandmother Betty Newton, two uncles, Kim Dwight Newton, Leslie Bert Newton and stepsister Nicole Morris and husband James.

As you go through this difficult time remember that you are loved by your family, neighbors and community.

No memorial service is planned currently.

The tide recedes but leaves behind seashells on the sand,

The sun sets down,

But gentle warmth still lingers on the land.

The music stops,

Yet it echoes on in sweet refrains.

For every joy that passes

Something beautiful remains.
