Anthony J. Letson

Anthony was born in Grants Pass, Oregon on August 21, 1989. His family moved to cities that provided an abundance of carpentry jobs for his father to earn a living. The family eventually settled in Paragould, Arkansas where demand for new home building was booming.

After high school, Anthony, a self-taught carpenter, frequently assisted his dad at job sights. Anthony made carpentry his life’s work. The two men became a traveling team, moving from Oregon to Arizona as their work demanded. Anthony helped build a restaurant and remodel a 5K square house in Arizona. The last job that Anthony held was at Walmart in Paragould. He welcomed the change to interact with the general public.

Anthony’s favorite past times were fishing and playing pool. He was patient and loving, truly a gentle man who was deeply rooted in his love of God.

Recently, he helped raise his infant nephew, Jace Letson, for awhile. The two complimented one another. Anthony marveled at life’s tiny accomplishments such as Jace learning to walk, saying a few words yet understanding so much more. Jace’s personality began to develop and his love for his uncle was immeasurable.
