Eugene Allred

Eugene Allred, 75, of Walcott, passed away Saturday, November 20, 2021.  He was born July 25, 1946, in Walnut Ridge, to Jim and Rellie Mae Allred.  Eugene enjoyed woodworking, farming, and raising horses and cows.  He was a true patriarch of his family; always taking care of and being active in their lives.  History and genealogy were areas of interest to Eugene.  Above all, serving the Lord was most important to Eugene.  He hoped during the difficult times of Covid people would turn to Jesus.
