James Clark Houston
1972-2025
James Clark Houston passed away on November 19, 2025, in Lebanon, Indiana. He was 53 years old. Born on June 27, 1972, in Dallas County, Texas, James grew up with deep roots in the Lone Star State before eventually making his home in Indiana. Over the course of his life, he built a career as a dedicated truck driver, working in the industry for more than 15 years. His time on the road reflected not only his strong work ethic but also his commitment to providing for those he cared about. James is lovingly remembered by his mother, Bobbie Coussan; his wife, Nicole Houston; his son, Dakota Wells; his daughter, Kahlan Houston; his stepdaughter, Kirsten Johnson; and his stepson, Kaelab Braswell. He also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins, brothers, and a sister who will carry forward memories of their time with him. May his memory bring comfort to those who knew him and peace to those who mourn his passing.
