of Mountain Home, AR

October 23, 1953 - January 28, 2025

David Vern Rosson, Sr. a lifelong Baxter County resident entered into eternal rest January 28, 2025 at the age of 71. He was born in Dadeville, Missouri on October 23, 1953 to Raymond and Velma Wallis Rosson. He met his wife, Joanie Villneff Rosson 54 years ago and they married April 21, 1972.

He is survived by his wife; three daughters, Diane Rosson (Eric Faust), Heather McGinnis (Brooks), Rikki Surrett (Ronnie) and one son, David Rosson Jr. (Shawna); His granddaughters, Aria (Gray), Hillaree (Hadden), Samari (Lucas), Katelyn (Devin) and grandsons, Hayden, Sijan, Mason (Trenity), Tanner (Delaney), Tyler and Adyn; Four great grandchildren, Landon (better known as Crash), Abi, Lincoln & Lawson; his siblings, Elmer (Louise), L.J.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his father and mother in law, James and Evelyn Villneff; brother, Howard Rosson; sister, Ruby Rosson, sister, Darlene Brim; brother in law, Tom Deadmond and grandson-in-law, Jacob Bell.

Our Daddy will be dearly missed by his family and friends. Family was his pride and joy and his greatest role in his life was being PaPa to his babies. He showed unconditional love to his family and always made sure to say ''I Love You'' more than twice, to be careful and to make sure the doors were locked. When someone came to visit and it was time to leave he always asked ''Why don't youns just stay?'' He was a person you could count on and didn't hesitate to help anyone. He is a man that legends are made from. Everyone that knows him has at least one story to tell of his fearlessness, his adventure, his compassion and/or his love. His early days were filled with old fashion rowdiness and all his days were filled with family and love. Daddy's skill of masonry and other craftsmanship can be seen all over the Mountain Home area as well as other parts of the United States. He enjoyed passing his skills and knowledge onto all his babies. He often took them to work with him as toddlers showing them that art doesn't just come in the form of paint and canvas. He was very protective of those he loved and always had your back.

Services will be held on Saturday, February 1st at The Table Community Church in Mountain Home. A gathering of family and friends will begin at 4 pm with the services to follow at 5 pm.
