William Blocker Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Kristine Blocker, children Darren (Justine) Blocker, Taryn Blocker and three beautiful grandchildren Harrison, Harper and Harley Blocker. He is also survived by his brother Chris (Anna) Blocker.
Chip grew up on his family's farm in Mountain Valley, Arkansas. His love for agriculture led him to the University of Arkansas where he majored in Animal Science. He was an industry leader in the poultry business for 40 years. He never met a stranger with his larger than life personality. His continuous hard work was his display of deep love for his family. Our family is grateful to know that Chip is with the Lord. He served on several mission trips with First Baptist Church, Hot Springs to Nicaragua, Peru, Russia, Alaska and Czech Republic. His connection with people came from his genuine concern and compassion.
Visitation will be 10:00 a.m. Friday, July 22nd at First Baptist Church – Hot Springs with a celebration of Chip's life immediately following at 11:00 a.m. with Bro. Mike Pounders officiating. All are welcome.
Private burial at Fourche Loupe Cemetery.
Pallbearers include Eddy Slick, Dent Burks, Chris Blocker, Darren Blocker, Chuck Culpepper, and Don Flynn.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Missions at First Baptist Church – Hot Springs.

My sincere sympathy to Chip´s family and friends and May God keep you close in His arms today and forever. Chip was a one of a kind in all the right ways. I will always remember him and our FL times together, especially as we played on the first FL Sr High football team together and had many classes together. I was not available to be in Hot Springs (where we live) during this time of sadness, but gladness in the Lord, as my wife and I are in New Hampshire. My prayers and thoughts are with you. May God bless and nurture you. Thanks for sharing Chip as we will be reunited one glad day.
