Earl Allred, 87, passed away on Friday, May 13, 2011 in his home in Vernal, Utah. Earl was born on Nov. 23, 1923 to Albert Allred and Helen Marie Redden.
Earl spent most of his youth in Vernal. It was in these years where he learned the value of work and the love of horses from his step dad "Herbert." On Dec. 07, 1941 "Pearl Harbor Day," he was working in Rangely on a drilling rig. It was this day that he decided to join the Army. He served in three different campaigns in the South Pacific.
After the War, he met and married his sweetheart Gladys Campbell on Sept. 17, 1946 and later sealed in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Salt Lake City Temple. He was a great Dad and spent a lot of his time raising his three sons and one daughter. While in Rangely he worked in various jobs, mainly as a mechanic and retiring as a gas operator and pumper for Western Slope Gas Company.
He enjoyed horses, hunting, camping and being with his friends and especially his children and grandchildren. He and Gladys spent many wonderful days traveling and camping in their trailer. Nothing pleased him more than seeing his family together. As an active member of the LDS church he served in five different bishoprics, as a high councilor, and various other callings. What he enjoyed most was teaching the youth of the church and sharing the gospel with others.
After Gladys passed on, he married another sweetheart, Reta Condos, in the Vernal Utah temple. They enjoyed dancing, camping and being with their friends. This marriage introduced him to a new family with five children, Diana Smith (Jim); Leeta Austin; Gary Condos (Jana); Linda Cable (Roger); and Kathy Hess (LaMont); 18 new grand children, and 21 great-grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, Reta Condos Allred: his children: Raymond Earl Allred (Carol) Sandy, Utah; David Glade Allred (Joanne) Rangely, Colo.; son-in-law Larry Steele (Linda), daughter-in-law MaryAnn Allred (James); his brother, Lawrence McKenzie Allred Vernal, Utah; 18 grand children; 26 great-grand children.
He was preceded in death by his wife Gladys Campbell Allred, his son James Vincent Allred, his daughter Linda Mae Allred Steele and grandson Benjamin James Steele; two brothers and his sister.
The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all who were involved with his health care.
Funeral services will be Thursday, May 19 at 11 a.m. at the Vernal 6th Ward Chapel, 850 West 100 North Vernal, Utah. Burial will be in the Vernal City Cemetery. Viewing will be held immediately preceding the funeral and tonight from 6-7 p.m. at the Thompson Blackburn Mortuary in Vernal.
