Houston Hart, 92, of Hamburg, died Monday, December 4, 2017 at his daughter’s residence in Texarkana. Mr. Hart was a lifelong resident of Ashley County, and thought the only good reason to leave Ashley County was to hunt or fish or to go see his girls. He worked for the Crossett Lumber Company, later Georgia Pacific, for 47 years and was a veteran of the United States Army having served in the Philippines during World War II. He was a faithful member of the Friendship Pentecostal Church of God in Crossett, until his death. While a quiet man, he lived his faith and was a generous friend to all who knew him.
