A service celebrating the life of Mr. Gerald McAllister will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at Saulters Moore Funeral Home Chapel, with Brother Larry Davis officiating. Mr. McAllister, age 78, entered into the eternal rest of his Lord early Wednesday morning, November 11, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. Saulters Moore Funeral Home has been entrusted with arrangements.

The family will receive friends on Saturday beginning at 10:00 am until the hour of service.

Gerald was born on August 28, 1948, in Jefferson Davis County, Mississippi, to L.C. and Maudine Ward McAllister. He was a longtime employee of Magnetek Manufacturing in Mendenhall, where he retired following many years of dedicated service. Gerald was a man who appreciated the simple pleasures of life, particularly spending time outdoors hunting and fishing. He also had a special place in his heart for animals and dearly loved the faithful four-legged companions who brought him so much joy and companionship through the years. Above all, Gerald treasured his family and the memories they shared together. Mr. McAllister was a member of Crooked Creek Baptist Church.

He was preceded in death by his father L.C. McAllister and his mother Maudine Ward Pope.

His memory will forever be cherished by his beloved wife, Bettye McAllister of Silver Creek; his sister, Rachel Moore of Jackson; and his brothers, Jimmie McAllister of Carson and Doug McAllister (Gail) of Silver Creek. Gerald also leaves behind his faithful and much-loved companion, Sadie, who will surely miss his gentle presence.
