Arlo James Averett, age 24, passed away suddenly early Sunday morning, Oct. 29. He was born on March 17, 1999, in Powell, Wyo., to James and Kelly Averett of Greybull, Wyo.
Arlo lived in Greybull his entire life and enjoyed spending time outdoors hunting, shooting, hiking and camping. His lifelong dream was to join the military; however, that was not to be. He was noticed by Clayton Draggoo who took him under his wing and trained him as a funeral director. Clayton also knew Arlo had a passion for helping others and helped him train to become an EMT. Eventually he began working for McGarvin-Moberly doing construction.
In January of 2021 he met the love of his life, Ashley Mayer, also of Greybull, and together they brought a beautiful daughter, Harlow Lynn Augustine Averett, into the world on Jan. 13, 2023. Harlow was the greatest gift of his life.
