Jewel Dean Persinger Chrestman loves her family, and she loves Jesus above all else.

Jewel was born to James Clemons and Grace Victoria Basset in West Helena, Arkansas, on February 7, 1935. After her mother's unexpected death in 1948, Jewel was adopted by her uncle and aunt, Louis and Modine Scott.

Jewel is preceded in death by her parents, her adopted parents, her brother, Robert ''Buddy'' Persinger, her son, James Edward Chrestman, III ''Eddie'', and her husband of 70 years, James Edward Chrestman, Jr.

Here to rejoice and celebrate her home-going are her brother, Dennis, and his wife, Corrine. Along with her children Anna Livingston Chrestman Barnard and Richard, Doyle Chrestman and Rhonda, Victoria Chrestman Hollis and Walt, Gizelle Chrestman Jones and Brett, Carla Chrestman Martin and Charles, 12 grandchildren, 21 great-grandchildren, and countless nieces, nephews, and friends who claimed her as their Granny or Aunt Jewel, which sounded like ''Angel''.

Mom loved Jesus the most. He was the most important aspect of her life. She journaled about her talks with him and rarely left a conversation with a stranger without mentioning Jesus to them. She intentionally raised her five children to love Jesus, to respect the sanctity of the body of Christ, to honor the role of their pastor, and to lead others to Jesus. This godly woman's tenacity influenced all five of her children and their spouses to pursue ministry in various forms. What a legacy to build and leave!

Jewel impacted so many lives: young and old. She taught Sunday School, led Tuesday prayer meetings, facilitated grief share, participated in the Red Hatter's Society, coordinated meals for the bereaved, and coached individuals re-entering society from time in prison. Jewel was nominated ''Volunteer of the Year'' several times from Meadow Park Elementary, the school where some of her children and grandchildren attended. One year she was even nominated the ''Volunteer of the Year'' for Pulaski County School District. She was also awarded ''Apostolic Church Mother of the Year'' multiple times, and served as an officer for the Ladies Auxiliary at the home church and state levels.

Jewel, Mom, Granny, G-Granny: whoever she was to you, she loved you. She mentioned you in prayer by name every single day, and she is finally home and at complete peace with her savior, Jesus

A homegoing celebration will be held at Apostolic Church, North Little Rock, Arkansas, Friday, December 19, 2025, at 11:00 a.m.

12/15/2025

Perry DeGrays Shock Jr., born June 23, 1947, went to be with his Lord and Savior on December 4, 2025.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Perry DeGrays Shock Sr. and Helen Keathley Shock; his brothers, Bobby Shock and Kevin Shock; and his sister-in-law, Linda Shock.

He is survived by his loving wife of 38 years, Beverly Gray Shock of Sherwood; his son, Perry DeGrays Shock III (Dawn) of Cabot; his cherished grandchildren, Carys and Bella; his nephews, Joel and Jason Shock; and his beloved four-legged companion, Tommy.

Perry was a 1965 graduate of Conway High School and was immensely proud to be a member of the football team that won the state championship during his senior year. He attended what is now the University of Central Arkansas before earning his Doctor of Pharmacy. After retiring from a successful career in pharmacy, Perry embraced a second calling in the world of finance, serving as a financial advisor, trainer, recruiter, and manager. Through his work and into retirement, he touched countless lives. Above all, Perry was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather, and he was especially proud of his son, Perry III.

Baseball was Perry’s greatest passion. Growing up, he played pitcher and first base and was even offered the opportunity to pursue a professional baseball career after high school. He chose instead to remain close to home and family. Following in his father’s footsteps, Perry dedicated himself to coaching his son from tee ball through Legion ball, never missing a game. Legion ball in their community would not exist without the dedication and hard work of the Shock family. The family takes comfort in imagining Perry now on the pitcher’s mound, Kevin at first base, Perry Sr. at short stop, Bobby behind the plate as catcher, and Jesus as the umpire.

Perry loved his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and lived his life guided by faith.

A celebration of life will be held at Roller-Owens Funeral Home in North Little Rock on Thursday, December 18, 2025, at 2:00 p.m.

Carter Davis Wilkins, of North Little Rock, Arkansas, passed away peacefully on November 23, 2025. He was born on September 21, 2005, and during his twenty years of life, he brought joy, kindness, and lasting memories to all who knew him.

Carter was a graduate of North Little Rock High School, and his next adventure was set to be the start of his welding career; a path he looked toward with excitement and determination. Carter was a lifelong member of Lakewood Methodist Church, where he worshiped alongside his grandparents. A former Cub Scout and Boy Scout, Carter embodied the curiosity and adventurous spirit those programs instill. He cherished the outdoors and found great happiness in hunting deer and ducks, fishing for anything willing to bite, and spending time surrounded by nature. When he wasn't outdoors or gaming, he enjoyed taking peaceful drives in his truck with country music playing. Above all, he treasured the close relationship he shared with his parents and his older brother, who remained the center of his world.

Among Carter's greatest passions was cooking. He was known for his strong opinions about seasonings and took great pride in preparing meals for those he loved. Some of his most treasured moments were spent cooking alongside his granddaddy during the holiday season; memories his family will forever hold close.

Carter was preceded in death by his paternal grandfather, Dr. Calvin Wilkins, and his beloved dog, Hershey.

He is survived by his parents, Karena Wilkins and Thomas Wilkins; his brother, Cameron Wilkins; his paternal grandmother, Margaret Wilkins; his maternal grandparents, Rebecca and James Deitz; his loyal companion, Harley; and a wide circle of extended family members and friends who were deeply important to him.

In lieu of flowers and plants, donations may be made in Carter's name to Arkansas Chapter Cystic Fibrosis Foundation or to the UAMS Cystic Fibrosis Clinic.

A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, November 29, at 11:00 a.m. at Lakewood Methodist Church in North Little Rock, with visitation beginning one hour prior.

With deep sadness, we announce the passing of Stuart David Mullins on November 11, 2025, at the age of 65. Stuart was a brave and outspoken soul, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever remain in the hearts of his family, friends, and all who knew him.
Stuart was known for his compassionate nature and his willingness to speak his mind with honesty and integrity. Stuart's presence will surely be missed. Though he is no longer with us, his spirit will continue to live on in our hearts.
A proud supporter of his home state, Stuart was an enthusiastic fan of the Arkansas Razorbacks, the Arkansas Travelers, and the UALR Trojans. His love for local sports reflected his deep connection to his community and his Arkansas roots.

🌌 The northern lights danced across Arkansas last night

This incredible photo was captured over our very first funeral home, Roller Funeral Home in Mountain Home, by Melanie Middleton (). What a moment to remember.

The aurora borealis rarely reaches this far south, but due to a powerful solar storm, the skies lit up in vibrant shades of red and purple! Will we get green tonight?

According to the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center, there’s still a strong chance of visibility in Arkansas again this evening between 6 PM and 9 PM.

👉 So grab your camera, step outside, and look toward the northern horizon.
If you're lucky enough to capture the northern lights, we’d love to see it ! Tag us or drop your photos in the comments and help us celebrate this rare and stunning phenomenon.

Thank you again, Melanie, for sharing this beautiful image with all of us.

Walter Petty of North Little Rock left this life on November 2, 2025. He was born July 24,1955 in Hot Springs. He was the son of Harold Petty and Hilda Capps Moseley. Walter was born exactly two years to the day after his sister Kay. They always had a special bond. He was Kay's rock.

Walter graduated from Magnet Cove High School in 1973. After graduating from mortuary school, he moved to Magnolia, Arkansas, where he worked for Lewis and Bailey Funeral Homes for the next 26 years. Changing careers, he received a Registered Nurse degree from Baptist School of Nursing in 1997. While in school, he was selected ''outstanding student'' by his peers. He was a loyal employee for 25 years at Baptist Health in numerous capacities until his retirement in September 2022. His passion for nursing was evident mentoring numerous students and co-workers.

Walter and his spouse, Jay Pace, shared 35 years together. They loved traveling and spending time at their lake house in Hot Springs. Walter was known for entertaining family and friends with his love for cooking. His dry sense of humor and light heartedness made people feel special and loved. He was always there for others, with his gift of selflessness. Not only a caregiver to patients, Walter was also a caregiver to his family and friends. Their home was always open. Not only was he a good cook he was a fantastic designer and decorated their home beautifully. Especially at Christmas, his nieces and nephews were in awe of their tree and decorations. Walter could build anything. After losing three boat houses due to weather, the only part left standing was the boat dock that Walter built.
