Obituary for Carter Brookes Allison

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Carter Brookes Allison, who died on July 6, 2026, at the tender age of 17. Born on October 22, 2008, in Paris, Tenn., Carter was a beacon of light and joy to everyone who had the privilege to know him.

Carter was the son of Jake and Katelynne Allison; brother to Madden, Knox, and Wade Allison; grandparents Jerry and Sheri Carter and Tracey Allison. He was preparing to embark on his senior year at Henry County High School. His love for the outdoors was evident in his commitment to the Henry County High School Bass team, where he showcased his skills as an avid fisherman, a passion he also pursued with the Tennessee Valley Bass Team.

Carter's work ethic was remarkable for someone so young. He spent his school days working as a farm hand at Wilson Farms, and during the summer, he took on a part-time role with BPU. Whether on the farm, on the water, Carter's smile was always ready to brighten the day of those around him.

Those who knew Carter will remember him for his quick wit and contagious smile. He had a unique gift for making everyone feel welcome and valued, and his wisdom was far beyond his years. Carter never met a stranger, and his kindness and friendship touched countless lives. When he wasn't working, he found solace on the water, fishing, or in the duck blind with his brother and friends. Above all, he loved spending time with his family and friends.

Carter also attended Tennessee Valley Community Church, where his faith and love for others were nurtured.

A service celebrating Carter’s life will be held on July 16, 2026, 5–7 p.m. at the Henry County Fairgrounds. His family, friends and all who had the joy of knowing him are invited to gather and honor the extraordinary young man who brought so much joy to the world.
