Harold Eugene (Pineknot) England, age 81, born August 26, 1939, passed away February 13, 2021 at TriStar Horizon Medical Center in Dickson, TN.

Born number 9 out of 10 children to Orville England and Irene Gentry England. He was born and raised in White Bluff, TN. Gene (Pineknot) excelled at sports throughout all of his years at White Bluff, playing baseball, football, basketball and continued to play fast pitch softball and coach in White Bluff and Nashville until he was about 40 years old.

He married Oma Jean Harvey England right out of high school, and they were married for nearly 64 years at his death. He was hired at Ford Glass Plant in 1957, and worked there until he retired 30 years later at age 48.

Gene loved music and played guitar and other instruments by ear. He sang and played in country bands for several years before and after his retirement. He also loved to hunt and fish and later enjoyed both with his kids and grandkids. One of his favorite past times was watching his grandkids softball and baseball teams and was well known around most any ballpark.
