Ogden Berry, 83 of Fayetteville and formerly of Little Rock, Arkansas, passed away peacefully holding hands with the love of his life on December 18, 2025. He was born on April 14, 1942, in Little Rock to Hoyt Berry and Robert Millicent (Pontius) Berry.
Ogden will be remembered for his honesty, loyalty and integrity. These qualities led him to become the executive director for the Workers Comp Division for the State of Arkansas. He established the first CIGNA Insurance office in Arkansas. While managing this office, he received numerous awards for outstanding service.
While Ogden had many accomplishments in his career, the greatest accomplishment was his family. He met the love of his life, Charlotte, on a blind date in 1981 and a beautiful 45-year love story began. His story is one to be admired. He led his family with faith, love and strength. His legacy will live on in his two children and his five grandchildren.
He is survived by his loving wife of 45 years Charlotte Cummings Berry, son Steven Janski and wife Meredith of Fayetteville, one daughter Stephanie Berry of Fayetteville, one brother, Orson Berry of Little Rock, and five grandchildren, Luke, Noah, Jacob, Grace and Charlotte.
A service will be held on Monday, December 22, at 11 a.m. in the pavilion of 16th Section Cemetery in Austin, Arkansas.
