George "Allen" O'Bannon of Austin, Texas passed away on Wednesday, October 8, 2014. He was born October 15, 1951 in Austin, Texas, the son of George "Buddy" O'Bannon and Dorothy Ann Adams. He attended school in Austin, Texas and served his country in the Marine Corps during the Vietnam War. After the military, Allen was a well-respected master electrician in the greater Austin area. He had many friends from all walks of life and he never met a stranger. He always made everyone smile and laugh.



Left to honor his memory is his beloved wife, Lisa Ebel O'Bannon, his very special granddaughter, Faith; sisters, Evelyn Michaels and Ethel Lorenz and many nieces, nephews and cousins.



Allen was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Guy Hamm and his daughter, Nikki, the apple of his eye.



A celebration of Allen's life will be held at noon on Saturday, October 18, 2014 at the residence of Lisa and Allen's good friend, Mac Spellman; 20539-20649 Honey Bee Lane in Spicewood, Texas. Please bring a side dish and help us pay tribute to this most amazing man.

The best neighbor a gal could have. Allen had a great heart and wonderful sense of humor. We are lucky to have known him and know he is kickin back with Sugar and enjoying the day. May he rest in the peace he so much deserves.

Allen was one of the few good friends I grew up with in South Austin . Our lives paralleled with our military duty and earning a decent living in the electrical trade. My most sincere condolences to the family. May your memories of Allen give you comfort and the strength to carry on with your lives.
