Larry Joe Pearle, 77, of Vilonia was a Christian and we take comfort in the fact that he was welcome at the Throne of God on January 25, 2025. Larry Graduated from Jacksonville High School and then felt the need to join the Army to volunteer to go to Vietnam to fight for freedom for everyone. Larry loved to aggravate by pointing to the ground and saying, "You dropped Something", he was always trying to make you laugh.

Larry's favorite thing was to hang out with his Veteran brothers and sisters at VA Post 10445 in Rose City or to do errands for his friends at Gunter's Veterans Home in Vilonia.

Larry is preceded in death by his parents, Martha and Jack Pearle. He leaves his memoirs with sister, Jackie Jones (Donnie), step-sister, JoAnn Taverna (Angelo), nieces and nephews and many loving cousins. A thanks you to his favorite cousin, Kathy Windle, who visited him often while in the hospital and before leaving him would pray with him and give him a kiss on the top of his head. Such a small thing, but meant so much to him.

Funeral services will be 11:00 a.m., Thursday, January 30, 2025 at Moore's Jacksonville Funeral Home. Visitation will be one hour prior to the service beginning at 10:00 a.m. Private interment will follow.
