Eva Carolyn Alamond was born in Celina, TN to George and Mary Westmoreland on December 17, 1949. At the age of 14, she had a friend ask her to write letters to a man stationed in the Army to gather information on a boyfriend. Shortly thereafter, the letters turned to a little more than information gathering. During a phone call, she accepted a marriage proposal from the same man, one whom she had never seen except in pictures. On May 21, 1966 she was married to Robert Floyd Alamond in Vidalia, La. at the age of 16.
Ms. Eva Alamond is preceded in death by her parents George and Mary Westmoreland, her Brother Jimmy Westmoreland, her sister’s Marylee Perdue, Jackie Poindexter, Kathy Jennings and Marian Pamela Westmoreland.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 53 years Robert Floyd Alamond, Sr., her sons Robert Alamond, Jr., and George Alamond and wife Connie Alamond. Brothers Fred and Roger Westmoreland and sister Darlene Spears. Grandchildren Blake, Kyler, Kaleb, Colton, Braden and Karadyn and one great grandchild Austin Parker Alamond and many nieces and nephews.
Ms. Eva Alamond loved her Liberty Missionary Church family which she and Robert were members of for 44 years. She was actively involved in the choir and teaching Sunday School and AWANA to the youths. She loved her GOD with all of her heart.
Pallbearers will be her grandchildren Blake, Kyler, Kaleb, Colton, Braden and Karadyn and as honorary pallbearer, her great grandson, Austin Parker.
The family of Eva Carolyn Alamond wishes to extend our sincere thanks to all those who have showed love and support during her brief illness, her Church family, and the members of Caddo Parish Fire District #4.
