Allison Pulliam Caldwell, 91, recently of Roanoke, but formerly a resident of Radford for almost 30 years, went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, July 6, 2021.
He was born in Columbus, Miss., on Nov. 19, 1929, to Charles and Laura Lee Caldwell.
He leaves his adoring wife of 39 years, Patsy; his five children, Laura Whitcomb and her husband Howard, Ila Bayrer, Douglas Caldwell, Nancy Martin, and K. C. Martin; four grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, many friends and relatives, and a special cousin, Marylyn Wood.
He was predeceased by his mother, Laura P. McCollum, and her husband, Mac McCollum.
Al enjoyed meeting people on road trips or at his rug store; the fellowship at his church, Fairlawn Baptist; time with his family; and keeping up with news and current events. He loved a good joke or a great story. His great smile and keen sense of humor will be missed by his many friends.
The family will receive friends from 4 until 6 p.m. on Thursday, July 15, 2021, at Mullins Funeral Home in Radford. Graveside services with full military honors will be held at noon on Friday, July 16, 2021, at the Southwest Virginia Veterans Cemetery in Dublin.
The Caldwell family is in the care of Mullins Funeral Home & Crematory in Radford. www.mullinsfuneralhome.com.
