Joseph Henry Bargett, 70, of Blytheville, Arkansas, passed away at his home on Monday, November 29th, 2021 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. He was born on November 18, 1951 in Toledo, Ohio to Willard Joseph Bargett and Ardis Mae Van Buren Bargett. He graduated from Blytheville High School in 1969 and served in the United States Navy from 1973-1982. He retired from Tenaris in 2013 after 16 years in various roles. He is preceded in death by his mother and father, Willard Bargett and Ardis Ray; step-father Melvin Ray; sisters Patricia Collins and Rachel Elliott; brother Willard Bargett Jr. He is survived by his wife of 37 years, Barbara Bargett; son, Michael Dunn of Zephyrhills, Florida; daughter, Michelle Etheridge (Sean) of Snellville, Georgia; daughter, Nicki Simpkins (Jared) of Benton, Arkansas; stepson, Joseph Bowman (Susie) of Albia, Iowa; stepson, Christopher (Sabrina) Bowman of Hermiston, Oregon; sister, Terry Dillman (Chuck) of Ozark, Missouri; sister, Neoma Connor (Marion) of Florence, Alabama; sisters, Kathy Bargett and Becky Henson, both of Rector, Arkansas; brother, Jonathon Ray of Jonesboro, Arkansas and a number of beloved grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Joe was a man of many words who never met a stranger and had a way of making you leave every interaction with him feeling the warmth and joy that radiated from within him. He loved nothing more than a motorcycle ride on a beautiful day or playing with his grandbabies who he “loved big bunches” and told them often. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the American Cancer Society. Or you can think of what Joe meant to you and a memory you shared and eat your favorite Little Debbie snack cake, his second true love. Tri-City LLC Crematory Funeral Home is honored and privileged to serve the Bargett family. Online condolences may be expressed at www.Tri-CityLLC.com.
