Cluster Woodrow (Woody) Allred, 91, beloved husband and father, passed away Sunday evening, June 27, 2010. Mr. Allred, who grew up in Grimsley, Tennessee, was met on his way to heaven by his precious wife Lillie who had gone on ahead of him two years ago. He is also celebrating with his father and mother, Arab and Mary Jane Allred, and his brothers and sisters Bill, Omer, Clemie, Collins, Ovie, Tonzie and Reesie. He is survived by his three daughters Sonja Miller, Pam Allred, and Myra Allred; his son-in-law Jim Miller; 6 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren; his much-loved nieces and nephews; his sister-in-law Agnes Denton and brother-in-law Lloyd Denton; and many more extended family members, friends, and those whom he brought to know the Lord who will miss him so very much.
Woody lived a full and wonderful life making many contributions in service to his country and community, applying his habit of hard work to everything he touched. He helped build our own Douglas Dam, and went on to serve our country during WWII starting with the CeeBees and then on the submarine-tender USS Orion. Mr. Allred continued with the Navy until 1965 using his skills as a master welder then went on to Civil Service with the police force on the Virginia Beach Amphibious Base until his final retirement from government service in 1978.
He became a much-loved and familiar face operating the gas services for the Sevier County Farmer’s Co-op during the next decade and was a dedicated member of First Baptist Church in Sevierville. He treated everyone he ever knew with care and kindness, honesty and a sense of fair play that is so rare. His capacity for loving all his girls and family is legendary – the best example of what a man truly should and can be, especially when he allows the Lord to lead his life. Woody’s impact on so many lives throughout the world as he quietly led men to know and love Christ is a beautiful legacy.
Funeral service 1 PM Friday in the West Chapel of Atchley Funeral Home with Pastor Jerry Hyder of First Baptist Church, Sevierville and Pastor Patrick Miller (grandson) of Redeemer Church, Anderson, SC officiating. Interment will follow in Beech Springs Cemetery with full military honors. The family will receive friends 5-7 PM Thursday and 12-1 PM Friday at Atchley Funeral Home, Sevierville.
