His professional journey was marked by dedication and passion. He served with distinction at the Ford Motor Company in Virginia, the Beaufort County Sheriff Department, the Harry Latham Company in Belhaven, and Rad Jones Chevrolet.

Jack leaves behind a legacy of love and commitment to his family, including his sons Douglas Kevin Alligood (Patsy Robbins Alligood) and Thomas "Tommy" Evan Alligood (Mary Bishop Alligood).

Jack was a remarkable father and grandfather, deeply loved and respected by his grandchildren: Douglas Kevin Alligood, II (Holly Wyche Alligood) of Greenville, NC; Jacqueline "Jackie" McGowan Stalls Priddy (Philip Priddy) of Baton Rouge, LA; Timothy Kyle Alligood (Misty Nifong Alligood) of Greenville, NC, Madison Jules Alligood of Raleigh, NC; Breanna Bishop Alligood of New York, NY. Jack's great-grandchildren, Jax Dane Alligood, Julian Vaughn Alligood, Lace Tracy Alligood, and Layna Kimberly Alligood, will cherish his memory forever.

I remember going to Edgewater Motors with my father Wilber Liverman back in the 1970s. My father was a used car salesman and bought vehicles from Mr. Jack and Doug. Mr. Jack was always friendly and my father thought alot of him. To the family keep his memory in your hearts and minds.

Alligood family,
I don't think I ever met your dad. I do know Tommy, though, and I've always thought a lot of him. I am certain that he was a good man, based on what I know of Tommy. I pray for you peace, comfort, and strength during this time. God bless each of you.
