He loved hearing his dogs on the trail of a deer running through the Southern Dismal Wildlife Club. A true hunter, he also loved turkey, rabbit, and dove hunting. A man of few words, if you struck up a conversation about hunting, he could talk all day.

    Surviving along with his loving wife, Carol, of the home is a daughter: Amanda Alligood Edwards and her husband Joel of Washington; brother: Tony Kent Alligood of SC; a sister: Joyce Evans of Washington; and two grandchildren: Kayla Alligood Lassiter and her husband Tyler and Chole Marie Alligood.
