James H McNerlin

James H. McNerlin, of Austin, Arkansas, left his earthly home for greener pastures on April 11, 2022. He was born May 23, 1940 in Booneville, Arkansas to the late Tony and Edna Stewart McNerlin. James proudly served his country in the United States Army and Air Force for 23 years before retiring honorably and returning to work in the Civil Service for another 20 years.
James loved the Lord, life and being outdoors. He treasured time with his family, friends and cows. The cows were given very original and sometimes funny names by one of his many grandchildren who all looked forward to their turns to name the calves.
James is survived by the love of his life of 39 years, Velma; two children, James E. McNerlin (Linda) of Malvern, Arkansas and Teresa Armer (Jay) of Spotsylvania, Virginia; one brother, Don McNerlin (Mary) of Atascadero, California, nine grandchildren and several great grandchildren.
James has chosen cremation for his earthly remains and no funeral service will be held. A gathering with the family, friends and loved ones will be Friday, April 15, 2022 from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. For more information, please call Caitlin Armer at (803) 372-3080.
