Raymond Allen Parrack, known to most as, Allen, departed from this world unexpectedly on May 27, 2025, in Fairmont, WV, at the age of 53. Born on January 4, 1972, in Morgantown, WV, to Anna Marie McKinney Parrack and the late Rollin E. Parrack, Jr.
Graduating from Morgantown High School, Allen ventured into the autobody industry where he honed his craft. His exceptional talents in car bodywork and, notably, in painting earned him a distinct reputation. Many sought after his expertise at Valley Auto Body, where Allen's ability to transform vehicles was nothing short of artwork.
Despite his professional accomplishments, his heart was always with his family and the simple pleasures in life.
Allen's love for billiards was well known. His skill with a pool cue was legendary. From professional competitors to casual players, he left an indelible mark in pool halls nationwide, his reputation preceding him wherever the games were played. Friends, family, and acquaintances would all agree that when it came to billiards, Allen was, without doubt, one of the greats.
Beyond the cue sticks and felt tables, Allen's world was beautifully colored by his family. In addition to his mother, Anna Marie, he leaves behind his beloved wife, Carrie Elizabeth Hawkins Parrack, and their cherished children, Jean Marie (Sabastian), Raymond Allen (Marlena), and Miley Mae, along with his adored grandchildren, Ethan James, Abraham Castiel, and Harriett Elizabeth and his beloved sister, Anita Sue.
In addition to his father, Rollin E. Parrack, Allen was preceded in death by his brother, William 'Bill' Parrack.
The departure of Raymond Allen Parrack has left an indelible void in the community and the hearts of those who loved him. A family man, a master craftsman, and an unrivaled pool player, Allen's legacy will endure through the stories shared around felt tables and family dinners for years to come.
Friends and family will gather at the Fred Jenkins Funeral Home on Friday, June 6, 2025 at from 6 PM until 8 PM. A memorial service will follow on Saturday, June 7, 2025 at 12 noon with Pastor Jeremiah Bostic officiating. Burial will follow at the Beverly Hills Cemetery.
