Tommye Ann Allison went home to be with the Lord on October 9, 2025 - her 62nd birthday. Born on October 9, 1963, to Tommy and Mary Anne Kelly Best, Tommye Ann completed her earthly journey on the same day it began, a full circle of grace that reminds us that life's truest blessings begin and end in God's hands.

Her warm spirit and love for others touched everyone who knew her.
She is survived by her husband of forty-two years, Timothy L. Allison; her parents, Tommy and Mary Anne Best; and several other beloved family members.
