James Russell Pounds Jr. age 64 of Cabot went to be with his Lord and Savior Sunday May 17, 2015. He was born in Hughes, Arkansas August 8, 1950 to James Russell and Rosie Haycraft Pounds. James lost his father and grandfather in a tragic accident before he was born. He spent a lot of time with his maternal grandparents Floyd and Effie Haycraft. One of James fondest childhood memories was spending time with his grandparents who worked for the actor John Wayne where it was common to have Sunday lunch with the actor at his ranch in Arizona. James married the love of his life Kathy Dianne Anthony, on June 2, 1968. He was a loving and caring son, husband, brother, father and grandfather. James served proudly two duties in the United States Army serving in South Vietnam; he was also a 32nd degree Mason and a Shriner. James was a Godly man who loved to preach at Cabot Nursing and Rehab. James true passion was witnessing to people. He loved spending time with his family camping and fishing and especially his grandchildren. James had several careers in his life from being a truck driver, pawn shop owner and heavy equipment operator, but his passion was using his track hoe helping his friends with work around their homes. James will be missed by all who knew him but especially his church friends from the Apostolic Revival Church where he was a member.
He is preceded in death by his father and Grandparents and one brother Henry Lee Ross Jr.
He is survived by his wife Kathy Dianne Anthony Pounds; sons James Russell Pounds III and Stephanie, Jerry Thomas Pounds and wife Kira; mother Rosie Pounds Cattaneo; four sisters Mary Starks and husband Benny, Beatrice Mason, Doris Coulter and husband Robert, and Brenda Border; six grandchildren Jimmy, Brandon, Katelyn, Samantha, Logan and Ethan; and two great-grandchildren Jenna and Abby and host of other family and friends.
