Preston Orvelle Dollar, Jr.
October 6, 1950 – February 26, 2025
Preston Orvelle Dollar, Jr. passed away surrounded by the family he loved more than anything. He was a hardworking man, spending over 30 years as a machine operator at the paper mill, providing for his family with quiet strength and dedication.
Preston was a true family man. He loved watching sports, going to the movies with his kids and grandkids, and taking long drives just to listen to music. He had a deep love for southern food—especially crawfish—and never missed a chance to enjoy a good meal with the people he cared about. Christmas was his favorite time of year, and he cherished the memories made with his family during the holidays.
He is survived by his wife, Janet Dollar; his daughter, Tammy Hardman (son-in-law Rich Hardman); his sons, Steven Dollar (daughter-in-law Ashley Alford) and Matthew Dollar; and his grandchildren, William "Will" Hardman, Cooper Hardman, Alaina Hardman, Mollie Andrews, Iris Dollar, Dawson Dollar, and Ayla Dollar. He also leaves behind his sister, Kathy Womble, along with many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Preston is reunited in heaven with his parents, Preston Orvelle "P.O." Dollar, Sr. and Bertie Mae Phillips; his siblings, Joyce "Penny" Cupp, Barbara "Bobbie" Simmons, and Bobby Dale Dollar.
He was a man who lived simply, worked hard, and loved big. He will be deeply missed, but the memories he created will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
A service to celebrate his life will be held some time this Summer in West Monroe, Louisiana.
Crevasse's Simple Cremation is honored to serve the Dollar family.






Janet and family,
I am so very sorry to hear of Preston passing away. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
