Jeffrey Glenn Laird

Services for Mr. Jeffrey Glenn Laird are 2:00 pm Thursday, July 29, 2021, at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church

with visitation from 12:00 until the time of the service. Burial will be at the Church Cemetery.

 

Mr. Laird passed from this world on July 25, 2021, at 41. He was born in Brookhaven, MS. on March 19, 1980.

He was a 1998 graduate of West Lincoln High School. Mr. Laird was a member of Pleasant Grove Baptist Church.

He was a mechanic by trade and loved to work on anything with a motor. There wasn’t much he couldn’t fix.

Jeffrey would give the shirt off his back to help a friend or a stranger in need. He loved the outside and could be

found riding a dirt bike, riding a four-wheeler on the creek, or being the dare devil, riding 3-wheelers on 2 wheels.

 

Preceding him in death were his father, Gilbert Laird; brother, Jerry Laird, grandfather, Jerry B. King, Sr.;

and biological parents, Nita Smith and Larry Mohon.

 

Those left to cherish his memory are his beautiful daughters, that he loved so much, Adrianna Laird (Julian),

Riley Laird, and Savanna Rutland; his mother, Kathy Laird; ex-wife, Ashley Bradley; brothers, Ben Laird and

Dewayne McCaffery (Danna); sisters, Kristi Mohon and Amy Hoover (Travis). Along with a host of nieces, nephews,

extended family and friends.

The family would like to thank Glenburney Nursing Home for caring for Jeffrey these last few years.

Pallbearers are Reese Patten, Ben Laird, Michael Green, Logan Smith, Blake Wallace, Brendan Patten and

Honorary Pallbearers, Dewayne McCaffery, Jerry B. King, Jr, Hunter King, Julian Anderson, David Usrey and Dylan Mohon.
