Winston Gerald Allred was born in Afton, WY to Gerald Wright and Juanita Walton Allred on July 17, 1942. As a child, he enjoyed working and playing with cousins at his Grandpa Nield's dairy, visiting with his mother as she took in sewing, traveling with his father as he drove truck, and playing with his beloved, but not-very-smart dog, Tip. He helped his father build the HiWay Market Grocery Store on the family property, which they later had to sell due to his father's health. He was seven when his sister, Susan (whom he named) was born. Jennie Lyn came when he was thirteen. What the family didn't have in money, they made up for in love. After graduating from Star Valley High School in 1960, he attended BYU at the urging of his mother and obtained a BS in Marketing from Utah State University in 1965. He began his career at Lower Valley Power and Light in marketing and advanced to management. Always technologically savvy and highly intelligent, he taught himself how to use the very first computer at LVP&L, eventually retiring after 35 years. He was sealed to the love of his life, Markeen Newswander on June 19, 1962 in the Idaho Falls Temple. Winston's #1 rule was that their five children love and respect their mother as much as he did. His #2 rule was that they love one another. The family built many cherished memories during road trips like borrowing Grandpa Elmo's boat for a day trip to Bear Lake or farther trips to the Oregon Coast, Northwest Territories in Canada, and Hawaii. A gentle, thoughtful man, Winston was a devoted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He exemplified unconditional love through countless acts of unassuming service, sharing his testimony of Jesus Christ and the atonement, serving in the temple, and teaching the gospel. But of all the many callings and titles Winston bore, his most treasured was that of husband and father. After fighting health challenges and infections, followed by COVID-19 pneumonia in the hospital through February, Winston Gerald Allred was taken to his eternal home, at the age of 78, on March 1, 2021. He is survived by his beloved wife, Markeen; their children Christine (Chad) Turner, Linda (Garth) Mikesell, Janette (Lyle) Harmon, and David (Stephanie) Allred; 19 grandchildren; 5 great-grandchildren; and his sisters Susan (David) Kerns and Jennie (Richard) Likes.  He is preceded in death by his daughter, Nancy Patterson; a grandson, Tyson Chad Turner; and his parents; Gerald Wright and Juanita Walton Allred.
