Rick Alagood Obituary

Published by Legacy on Oct. 17, 2025.
Rick Alagood entered into rest on Sunday, October 12, 2025 at Emerald Nursing Home in Elizabethtown.
He was born on June 1, 1958 to the late Kathryn R. (Eppley) Alagood and Kenneth L. Alagood. Rick is pre-deceased by three older brothers, Michael Brown, James Alagood and Dennis Alagood. He is survived by his two younger sisters, Donna Alagood and Terry Scott. He had two nieces, Holly Briese and Lauren Scott and four nephews, Troy Alagood, Chad Alagood, Andrew Scott and Matt Alagood.
Rick enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. He was a fan of drawing pictures and his favorite meal was cheeseburgers and milk shakes. He always had a smile on his face and was happy to wish you a good day. He will be missed, but will live on in the hearts of all who had the pleasure to know him.
A private service will be held with the family and he will be laid to rest next to his beloved, Mom.
