James Allman Obituary
Eric earned a Bachelor's Degree in Project Management from the University of New Mexico and spent 14 years working as a Heavy Civil Project Manager. His professional life reflected his commitment and strong work ethic.
He shared his life with his beloved partner, Erin Allman. Together they raised three children-Lilly, Logan, and Lukas-who brought him immense joy. Eric was a devoted son to his mother Susan Allman, and to his father Kirk Allman and stepmother Deb Allman. He is also remembered by his brother Tyler and sister-in-law Missy; niece Riley and nephew Reed; step-siblings Ethan, Meghan, Amber, and James; uncle and aunt Joe and Alice Allman; and aunt Ann.
Eric found joy in the outdoors. He was an avid fly fisherman and duck hunter who cherished camping trips with his family. Known for his quick wit and generous spirit, Eric was always ready with a joke or a helping hand. His selflessness left a lasting impression on those around him.
A Celebration of Life will be held on April 24, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at French Funerals & Cremations, 9300 Golf Course Rd NW, Albuquerque, New Mexico. In the spirit of Eric, please dress in casual attire.
In lieu of flowers please donate to your favorite charity or plant a tree in his name.
May Eric's memory bring comfort to those who knew him and continue to inspire acts of kindness for years to come.

My heartfelt condolences to the Allman family and friends affected by this tremendous loss. Eric was such a nice, funny, bright guy in high school, back when it wasn't too cool for a teen boy to be genuinely kind. I will remember him as the sweet guy from my chemistry class who grew up to build a beautiful family. I hope the cherished memories of Eric bring comfort and peace to his loved ones, especially his beautiful children. Rest peacefully, Eric.
