Trenton Todd “Tiny” Varner, 36, of Head Waters, passed away Tuesday, December 6, 2022 as the result of an automobile accident.
He was born May 15, 1986, the oldest son of Steven Eugene and Trenda Mae (Malcolm) Varner.
A 2004 graduate of Highland High School, Tiny was employed with Lakeside Book Company as a machine operator. He attended Destiny Family Center Church.
A selfless, genuine soul, Tiny had an easy-going approach to life. His gentle spirit and caring heart led him to meet his many friends, whom he cherished and considered extended family.
