He was preceded in death by his Nannie, Brenda Wilson Farless and his aunt, Kimberley Dawn Farless.

A graduate of Cannon Co. High School, Class of 2023, Kaden was a jack of all trades from mowing yards, working on cars, going to car shows but mostly helping others with anything that they needed. He was a simple man and a country boy through and through. He loved running his beagles in trials where they won many trophies, ribbons and awards. It tickled him to drive his red S10 with the Pizza Hut sign on top. He loved Subway, watching the sunsets and wearing suspenders. Most of all he loved spending time with his family especially his Pa Jerry. Together they made many lasting memories that they will never forget. He was the first boy in 35 years born to the Farless family. Kaden was a member of the Baptist church.

His family will receive friends Tuesday, October 7, 2025 from 4:00 P.M. until 8:00 P.M and Wednesday until his time of service.

Funeral services will be 3:00 P.M. Wednesday, October 8, 2025 in the Chapel of Woodbury Funeral Home with Bro. Larry Thomas and Bro. Chris Pirtle officiating. Interment will follow in Thyatira Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Woodbury Funeral Home to help his family with funeral expenses.
