Timothy Layton Rowlett ''Joe'', 77, of Damascus, Arkansas, died on November 19, 2021. He was born on October 5, 1944, to Timothy O and Inez Goff Rowlett.
Joe and his wife, Mary, together ran a small farm called ''Hard Times Farm''. He was a father to 3 children whom he loved and was so very proud of. Joe was a retired mechanic and wrecker operator as well as a member of Copperas Springs Baptist Church in Guy, Arkansas. He was also a proud member of the Masons for over 50 years.
Joe was preceded in death by his parents, his 2 brothers; Wayne D. and Glendon Smith Rowlett, 1 sister; Eloise Jeffcoat and a nephew Duke Rowlett.
Joe is survived by his wife; Mary, a son; Mark Rowlett (Shellie), daughters; Missy Snowden (Robbie) and Joely Costello. He also leaves 4 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren, a loving sister; Paulette Rowlett (Tommy), brother; Wade Rowlett and a special niece; Tracie Middleton (Lyle). He and Mary also had a very ''special'' boy named Owen Rowlett. Also left to cherish his memory are many other dear family members, neighbors and friends.
Mary wanted to'' thank'' Dr. James Fulmer, Dr. Ann Riggs and Dr. Anum Syed for their loving care. She also wanted to ''thank'' Arkansas Hospice for their care and especially the nurses and aides at St. Vincent Hospital. Joe also had 2 ladies that were awesome in their care; Sue King and Donna Winfrey. Mary and Donna would often joke that, Mary was sister wife #1 and Donna was sister wife #2. They were such a blessing to Joe and Mary.

Used to take my old vehicles to him to fix. He always done a great job and was very helpful. He would tell me about Uncle Alvin trying to get him to pitch quarters for payment. He was a great mechanic and a super friendly great guy. So sorry for your loss

Mary, Mark, Missy, Joley and the entire Rowlett family, please accept our sincere condolences.
Both of us go way back with your family, Deb helped Brenda babysit in the summer when Mark and Missy was young. Joe always was laughing and kind. And Hallous started out with his first Ford truck taking it to Joe who he knew was the best mechanic around! And as time went by became good friends!
As we all are getting older our outlook on life may change or our circumstances in some way. We may not understand and question even why... but we know our God has brought us through all those times good and bad! He has walked beside Joe for some time now and maybe even carried him some of the way! That's the God we love and serve.
So today we want to say family keep those memories and share them often.
Joe you can now rest easy under that big shade tree in the cool of the day and we will meet you there one morning!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all!
