Reatha Crowder Overton, 68, of Malvern, died on Tuesday, July 1, 2025 at CHI St. Vincent hospital in Hot Springs. She was born to the late Wilford Dale Crowder and Mildred Katherine Crowder on August 2, 1956, in Blytheville. She resided in Malvern for most of her life.

She graduated from Malvern High School in 1975, where she was a member of the band. Her hobbies included spending time with friends and family and crafting small canvas crosses to give to others as a symbol of her Christian faith.

Reatha will be remembered for her kindness and generosity. She was always willing to share what she had, even if it was only a smile. She brought joy to others, and she was an angel on this Earth.
