Futrell Hardware
Our first mini-documentary focuses on Futrell Hardware in Pocahontas, AR. This staple of the town square has served the community since 1936. Futrell Hardware was started as a Western Auto franchise by J.M. Futrell and continued in operation until 2021 by his son, Byron Futrell, who was 85 at the time of this interview. The saying goes, “If Byron doesn’t have it, you don’t need it.” This is a story of service, hard work, and legacy.
