Rev. Billy G. Allegood lovingly known as "The Pie Man" to many departed this life on Monday, November 1, 2021, at the age of 88 years, 4 months, and 21 days. He was born in Doerun, Georgia on June 11, 1933, the son of the late James Claude and Roxie Lucille Brown Allegood. On December 22, 1995, he was united in marriage to Jimmie Lois Banks, who preceded him in death on December 6, 2019.
Billy led a life of service that began with the US Army, he was enlisted for 22 years. In 1983 he followed his heart and began his life’s journey as a Methodist minister. He was an active minister for 31 years retiring in 2014. He was still active in the community doing works of all types and could be depended on by many to drop by with a warm McDonald’s pie earning the name “The Pie Man”. His warm smile, kind words, "God Bless you" or “I love you and God loves you, too” will definitely be missed by many.
Billy’s hobbies included fishing, hunting, gardening, and Southern Gospel music.
