John Christopher Myrick of Alexander, Arkansas was born to the late Walter Myrick III and Dorothy (Damewood) Myrick, on Saturday, April 6th, 1957, in Odessa, Texas. He left this world too soon and a little dimmer on his 68th birthday, Sunday, April 6th, 2025, safely in his home. John loved fishing, hunting, boating, and most of all, laughing. He accomplished many things in life, such as being a Printing Press Operator, Graphic Artist, and a Food Service Manager.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Walter and Dorothy Myrick of Lubbock, Texas, and his grandparents, Walter Jr and Margaret Myrick of Lubbock, Texas, and Sam and Elizabeth Damewood of Radford, Virginia.
