Wilbert Pogue
Wilbert Pogue, 91, of North Little Rock passed away to be with the Lord in Heaven on Wednesday, September 27, 2017. He was born September 23, 1926 in St. Charles, Arkansas to Gus and Bertha Pogue.
He is survived by his wife of 69 years, Mildred Franks; four children, Darral, Judy, Denise and Jimmy; five grandchildren, Alon, Shane, Kimberly, Rachel and Corey; four great-grandchildren, Shaylee, Lane, Katie and Audrey; and sister, Dolly.
Wilbert shared many stories growing up in St. Charles. He loved fishing on the White River and hunting of all kinds. He was a man that could do and fix anything. Wilbert served in the United States Army during World War II. He said he was always there to help anyone in need. He did everything to make a living for his family like diesel mechanic, farm work, sand blasting, mill work, but his professional career was with the government for Federal Game and Fish. He then went on to the Corp of Engineers.
The family will greet friends at North Little Rock Funeral Home, 1921 Main St., North Little Rock from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Monday, October 2, 2017. Burial with military honors will follow at 1:00 p.m. at Arkansas State Veterans cemetery, 1501 West Maryland Ave. in North Little Rock.
His favorite bible verse is Romans 8:38-39 "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
