John Franklin Connard
July 15, 1942 - August 10, 2025
John Franklin Connard, age 83 of Monticello, passed away Sunday, August 10, 2025, at his home. He was born July 15, 1942, in Dermott, AR to the late Arvis Connard and Ilar Davis Connard.
He was a retired cabinet maker having worked in hundreds of homes in the Monticello/Drew County area. John was a very hard worker and was his happiest when working. He also enjoyed deer hunting, camping and gardening. He had a great sense of humor as he would tell his corny jokes, had a huge heart for others, especially his wife, and everyone that John met loved him. He was the best husband, son and son-in-law anyone could ask for. John was a United States Army National Guard Veteran and a member of Lacey Christian Community Church. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, Eugene; and two sisters, Maxine and Margaret.
He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Nadine Chapman Connard of Monticello; numerous nieces and nephews; and one special nephew who was like a son, John David Chapman of Star City.
Memorial services will be 2:00 p.m. Sunday, August 17, 2025, at Stephenson-Dearman Funeral Chapel. You can sign John's guestbook registry here on his page.
