Peggy Pounder

Peggy Toffier Pounder, born June 11, 1927, died November 13, 2018. She is survived by her husband of 70 years, Glenn Pounder, and their three daughters, Diana Pounder, Marsha Pounder Edgman, and Leah Pounder St John. Other surviving family members include grandson, Taylor Randall, granddaughter, Jordan Guthrie Caudell with husband, Wes Caudell and their three young sons, Price, Hayes, and Will, and sons-in-law, Dennis Greenlee and Sam St John. She was pre-deceased by her parents, Pete and Zalema Toffier, her sister, Nellie Toffier, and her grandson, Grant Guthrie.

Peggy was out-going and outspoken, a strong advocate for women, and loved music, serving as her church organist for many years. She was an original ‘do-it-yourselfer', sewing her own and her daughters' clothes for many years, as well as tastefully and frugally making a comfortable home for her family. She and her husband actively supported their daughters' pursuits and achievements in higher education and careers, as well as their interests in dance, sports, and music.

She earned an undergraduate degree in sociology and journalism from Oklahoma State University, served as a substitute teacher for some years, taught typing at Arkansas Enterprises for the Blind, and later worked as an executive secretary at A.O. Smith Industries.

Funeral services will be held on Friday, November 16 at 11:00 a.m., preceded by visitation beginning at 10:00 at Little Rock Funeral Home, 8801 Knoedl Ct. (NW corner I-630 and Barrow Rd.). Interment will follow at Pinecrest Memorial Park in Alexander. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Alzheimer's Association or one's favorite charity. The family expresses deep appreciation to the Hospice staff for the comfort and care they provided in the last few days of Peggy's life.
