Arthur Berry, age 93, of Hayti, Missouri, passed away on April 18, 2026. He was born on October 7, 1932, in Obion County, Tennessee, to the late James and Elsie Berry.

Arthur lived a life defined by service, faith, and devotion to his family. He proudly served his country in the United States Army and later continued his commitment to his community as an auxiliary police officer with the Hayti Police Department.

A man of strong Christian faith, Arthur was a member of the Church of Christ. He found joy in life's simple pleasures—spending time with his beloved wife, Ruby, and their daughter, Tonya; fishing, dancing, watching his westerns on t.v, and reading the Bible.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Martha Berry, and his brothers, Henry "T" Berry, James Berry, Robert Berry, and Joe Berry.

Arthur is survived by his daughter, Tonya (Gordon) Malone of Allen, Texas, along with extended family and friends who will cherish his memory.

He will be remembered for his warm spirit, steady presence, and the love he shared with those around him.

Funeral Services will be held at 1:00 p.m. on April 20, 2026, in the John W. German Funeral Home Chapel in Hayti, with Jon Pruiett officiating.  Visitation will be held from noon until service time at the funeral home.  Burial will be in Pemiscot Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Caruthersville with Military Honors.
