Mark Dewayne Dewhitt, 49, of Beedeville departed this life Tuesday, May 18, 2021.  He was born June 22, 1971, to Raymond Dewhitt and Rebecca Adams.

Mark was of the Church of Christ belief.  Fishing, rabbit hunting, and deer hunting were a few of his hobbies.  He also enjoyed finding old things and making them new again.  Back-roading was his favorite past-time.  What Mark loved to do most was spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren.

Mark was preceded in death by his granddaughter, Sophie Wilson; his nephew, Nicky Allgood; grandmother, Lovella Williams; grandparents, Lady Ruth and R.A. Dewhitt; and wife, Tammy Bumgarner.

He is survived by his sons, Johnathon Dewhitt of Forrest City, Dustin Dewhitt of Paragould, Decoda Dewhitt (Shelby) of Newport; daughters, Terra Dewhitt of Jonesboro, Cheyenne Cox of Little Rock, Skylar Lanon of Paragould, Marissa Caldwell of Paragould, Destiny Summers of Paragould; grandchildren, Hunter, Tucker, Aiden, Mia, Conner, Camri, Madden, Malachi, Tabias, Giovanni; siblings, Rayvis Dewhitt of Lake City, Tammy and William Allgood of Cave City, Matt and Becky Adams of Grubbs, his wife, Melissa Dewhitt of Paragould, and his half brother, Keith Dewhitt of Paragould.

We would like to thank Kathy Thomas, a wonderful woman who was a special caregiver to Mark and made his last days the best she could give him.  We would like to acknowledge her for her deed; she has a heart of gold and was one of the best women in his life. She was truly a gift from God.

Graveside service will be Monday, May 24, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. at Sandhill Cemetery.  Visitation will be from 12:00 until service time at Dillinger Funeral Home Chapel.
