Galen J. Allred passed away after a long battle with Parkinson's disease on September 26, 2021. He was born in Salt Lake City, UT on December 8, 1946, to Jay L. Allred and Wilma Lue Oldroyd.
Galen spent his early life in Lyman, Utah. The family moved to Henderson, Nevada when he was 5 years old and Galen was raised there. He was a 1965 graduate of Basic High School. Following graduation, he served an LDS mission in the Southwest Mexico Mission (1966-1968).
Galen married, Barbara Giles in the Manti Temple on September 6, 1969. Together they raised five children: Galen Bret Allred (Gia Andrus), Shelby Anne Carpenter (Eric), Jay Tyler Allred (Lisa Jensen), all of Kanarraville, Utah; Bobbi Saige Burns (Brian) of Ashburn, Virginia; and Giles Clay Allred, DVM (Krista) of Silver City, New Mexico.
They also have 16 grandchildren whom the love dearly: Laremi Brett Martino (Colton) & daughter Tracelynn of Heber City, UT, Grayson Ike Allred (Fiancée Jacie Etbauer) Edmond, Oklahoma, G. Bodrey Allred, Ryler Brock Allred; (Kanarraville, UT); E. Kyson Carpenter (Lecia) and daughter Codie Anne; McKade R.

Galen attended BYU following his mission but left the university and moved to Cedar City, UT in 1970 to help his parents establish Cedar Aggregate Products. He also owned an excavation company, Allred Enterprises, and a concrete construction company Allred and Allred, Inc.
Galen also owned Galen Allred Club Lambs. He was a hobby farmer and raised and sold lambs for competitive livestock shows. His sheep were a reason for living as the Parkinson's continually took away what he could physically do.
Galen was actively engaged in civic affairs throughout his adult life. He was a board member for the Columbia Iron Mines Credit Union for over 20 years. He served two terms as the Kanarraville Town Mayor and served on the Kanarraville City Council for an additional 16 years. He loved Kanarraville.
Galen also served in two bishoprics, with Bishop Scott Anderson, and Bishop Thomas Sardoni and as a Ward Clerk for four additional bishops. He loved his calling as a High Councilman in the SUU Stake. He was also a scout master in Kanarraville, but his favorite job was working in the Primary.
The family wishes to thank Ethan Bunker for his kind and attentive care of Galen during his last week.
Galen was preceded in death by his parents, grandparents; Willis Andrew Oldroyd and Luzella Oldroyd; Loren and Lillian Allred; an infant brother and an infant sister. He is survived by his wife, children, and grandchildren; his sisters: Leanna Cammack (Dewey Bud), MaryJayne Knight (George) and Tonya Payne (Bill) and numerous nieces and nephews.
