Harvey “Odell” Puryear

Place of birth: Nashville, AR

Religious affiliation: Other

All that knew him knew his a corker. He loved his family and although having made life mistake’s, spent the rest of his life about his family. He loved four wheeling with Christina and all that would come to the bottoms and ride. Christina’s first words were “nan da da” her version of granddaddy. He adored her and was a great father to her. He was also a super grandfather. Every weekend was spent fixing breakfast for the kids. His famous “let’s mix up some butter and Karo to sop those last few biscuits with, after breakfast it was whatever the kids wanted to do. He was a loyal friend and would help anyone that ask for it. He will be forever remembered and held in a very special place in our hearts. Thank you Odell for all you did and tried to do. Your intentions where honorable and love was true.
