Allan Montgomery Workman

Allan Montgomery Workman, 92, of Clarksville, Tn passed away at home on August 12, 2026.

Allan was born June 2, 1934 to the late Dr. Rodney Montgomery Workman and Mary Nell Harris Workman. He grew up in Southside along with his younger brothers Robert and William.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his sidekick and wife, Mary Evelyn Ray Workman, his brothers Robert and William Workman and his children; Kathy and Mark Workman.

He is survived by his children Max Workman, Susan Workman and Rodney Workman; one grandchild Colin Workman and two great-grandchildren Anna and Colson Workman.

Allan was a loving husband and father where family was the most important thing. He was, in every sense, a family man.

He had a long and good life. Between all the stories of his childhood where he traveled into Clarksville with his first sidekick, brother Robert to watch Westerns at the Roxy while his father saw patients on Saturdays, graduating from APSU with dual majors in Biology and Chemistry, guarding the Panama Canal, retiring from IBM after 31 years and exploring the entire country with his wife Mary, he was a man who smiled easily and often, made friends easily, flirted with his wife after decades of marriage and was the stable, loving influence and example in his children's lives.

He will be greatly missed.

A graveside service will be held on Saturday, August 22, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. at Greenwood Cemetery. Arrangements are entrusted to Sykes Funeral Home. 

Pallbearers will be Bob Workman, William Workman, Fletcher Schrock, Bob Jett, Colin Workman and Brad Workman.
