James “Jimmy” Lynn Price, age 79, of Hazen, Arkansas passed away peacefully with his family by his side on November 6, 2023, after a long battle with lymphoma.
Jimmy was born in DeValls Bluff, Arkansas to James and Marie Price and graduated from DeValls Bluff High School in 1962. He served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. Jimmy was a life-long farmer in Prairie Country. Farming was his life’s passion, and he respected the land and trusted that it would provide for his family. He worked every day, always finding something to do to stay busy. Before having a stroke in 2013, Jimmy enjoyed the horse races, duck and pheasant hunting, and fishing.
Jimmy was preceded in death by his father, James Henry Price, and his sister, Barbara Schlenker. He is survived by his devoted wife of 52 years, Linda McMullen Price of Hazen; his sons Jeff Price of Searcy and Kevin (Misti) Price of Maumelle; his grandchildren Jackson, Ethan, Saylor, Peyton, and Reese; and, his mother, Marie Price, and brother, Dennis (Barbara) Price, both of DeValls Bluff.
