Johnathan Scott Stallings

The world became a little quieter on August 5, 2026, when Johnathan Scott Stallings left us all too soon. Born on February 9, 1987, Johnathan lived a life filled with heart, laughter, and resilient spirit. His presence touched everyone that knew him, and his absence is deeply felt by a loving family and a circle of friends whose lives he brightened in countless ways.

Johnathan was the beloved son of Samantha Stallings and Todd Broyles, who now must carry forward the memory of a son whose warmth and humor could brighten even the darkest days. He was the cherished grandson of Dale and Melva Broyles, whose pride in Johnathan was unwavering and daily renewed by his kindness and hope. His family meant the world to him, and he meant the world to his family.

He shared a special bond with his cousins—Josh Price, Christopher Edwards, and Courtney Price—each of whom carries treasured memories of adventures and laughter together. With family gatherings always filled with Johnathan’s quick wit and gentle support, these cherished loved ones found comfort in his loyal companionship.

Johnathan’s legacy does not end with those he leaves behind; it is also shaped by those who preceded him in passing. The memory of his grandmother, Jan Summitt Broyles, and his aunt, Buffy Broyles Price,and great grandparents, Dale, Sr. "Red" and Martha Broyles endures in the stories, values, and love they imparted, which Johnathan carried forward with humility and grace.

His journey through life was defined not only by devotion to his family but also by the way he treated every individual he met—with empathy, respect, and a readiness to listen. Johnathan was a constant source of support and steadiness, lending his strength to friends and family whenever it was needed most.

Above all, Johnathan Scott Stallings will be remembered for the profound love he gave and the unmistakable mark he left on those whose paths crossed with his. As we mourn the loss of a remarkable soul, we also celebrate the light he brought to the world—an enduring glow that will continue to shine through the hearts of those who knew and loved him. Johnathan loved attending Webb Street School and all the friends he made. He especially loved his hats, mostly his Panthers hat. He also enjoyed riding to Rankin Lake and hanging out. He now resting and has peace in the Lord.
