Allyne Milam passed away peacefully at Riverside Community Hospital in
Riverside, California on November 17th with her son, Lynn Krause, and longtime
caregiver, Karen Robinson, at her side. She was one month short of her 96th birthday.

Allyne was born and raised in Monette, Arkansas and her mother, Gladys Hobgood, was the longtime Postmaster there and her grandfather, Joseph Blankenship, was one of the founders of Monette when it was incorporated in 1901.

She was preceded in death by her husband, James Milam, and is survived by her son, Lynn Krause, and his wife, Helen, as well as her grandchildren, Andrew Krumm, Gregory Krumm, Lisa Graves, and Julie Murphy.

She was also preceded in death by her beloved father and mother, Homer Hobgood and Gladys Hobgood, both longtime residents of Monette, and her sister, Sarah Jo McFadden.

Allyne's deepest passion was her family and friends. Her home was always a
warm and inviting place for everyone, family and friends were always welcome. She
had an extremely full life traveling as an Air Force wife to Germany, Japan, Hawaii, and
living in numerous states, Florida, Alabama, Illinois, Mississippi, Arkansas, both
Hamatsu and Tokyo, Japan, Honolulu, Hawaii, Los Angeles and Riverside, California,
Tucson, Arizona, and then back to Riverside, California where she remained for the rest
of her life.

She was an active member of the Riverside Assistance League and loved being a
long-time member of the Victoria Club where she enjoyed spending many hours with her
late husband, Jim Milam, family and friends and "The Putters." To anyone who knew
her, she was a warm and loving friend who was also truly a Lady in every sense of the
word. She lived a full life with a large heart and easy smile, a recipe that served her well.

She will be buried in her hometown of Monette, Arkansas where her late mother
and father, sister, and many relatives are interred.

Her funeral will be held this Saturday, December 9, at 11:00 a.m. at the Monette Methodist Church with interment immediately thereafter at the Monette Memorial Cemetery under the direction of Gregg Funeral Home of Monette.

All who may have known Allyne, or her family, are invited to attend and celebrate a life well lived.
