Richard "Richie" W. Poe, a beloved member of our community, passed away at the age of 69 on Sunday, December 29, 2024. A cherished dentist known for his compassion and care, Richie dedicated 40 years to connecting with and loving the folks of Harrison.

Richie's life was a testament to his love of his family, his faith, and his passions. He was a devoted grandfather, father, and husband. Nothing made him happier than spending time with them. He was a dedicated member of Northside Church of Christ, his second family. He was a passionate fisherman, singer, and Razorback fan and loved Andy Griffith.

Richie's light will continue to shine in the hearts of those who knew him. He will be deeply missed but is singing with Jesus now.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Richard and Ruth Poe. He is survived by his wife, Becky; his daughters, Ellie Jane (Kevin) of Bentonville, Arkansas, and Emma Gammon (Taylor) of Madison Alabama; grandchildren, Ella, Lucy, Millie, Hattie, and William; his sister, Alisa Davidson (Dan) of Searcy AR and a host of nieces and nephews who will deeply miss him.


The funeral service was on Thursday, January 3, 2025, at Northside Church of Christ, with Steve Powers officiating.
