CHRISTOPHER LAYNE BARRON

HEADLAND… Christopher Layne Barron, a resident of Headland, Alabama, passed away early Saturday morning, January 17, 2026, from injuries sustained from a motor vehicular accident. He was 33.

Funeral services are scheduled for 11:00 A.M.

Christopher Layne Barron, beloved soldier, husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and cousin, passed away on January 17, 2026, at the age of 33.  Born August 14, 1992, Christopher lived a life marked by courage, loyalty, and devotion to the people he loved.  He served his country with honor, carrying himself with the discipline and quiet strength that defined him.  His service reflected the heart he brought into every part of his life, steadfast, selfless, and committed to something greater than himself.

Christopher was a devoted father, and his children Christopher Layne Barron, II, Paisley, and Jemma, were his greatest pride.  His love for them was deep, constant, and unmistakable.

He is survived by his mother and bonus father, Karen and John Delgado; his father, Scott Barron (Debbie Hayden); his siblings, Selena Taylor (Earnest), Tara Shelley (Garrett Meyers), Brianna Shields (Charles), Breanna Santome (Vincent), and Andrew Barron (Courtney); his maternal grandfather, Joseph D. Harris; his paternal grandmother, Regina Armstrong; his grandfather, Samuel Madrid; and his many aunts & uncles, and his ten nieces and nephews.

He leaves behind his wife, Faith Barron, who shared life’s journey with him and now carries forward the love and memories they built together.

Christopher’s life touched countless others, family, friends, and brothers-in-arms.  His absence leaves a space that cannot be filled, but his memory remains a source of strength, pride, and love.

A Soldier’s Strength. A Father’s Heart. A Legacy That Lives On.
