Sydney Lynn Allmon, 21, of Marysville, died unexpectedly Wednesday afternoon, November 16, 2016.

She was a 2013 graduate of Marysville High School and played softball on the high school team. She was a lover of art who especially enjoyed painting and listening to music. She had a free spirit, an infectious smile and an uncanny ability to make anyone laugh. Throughout Sydney’s battle with addiction, she inspired the lives of all who knew her while courageously fighting her own fight. She will be deeply missed by all who loved her.

Sydney was born February 7, 1995 in Bellefontaine to Beau Allmon and Angela L. Phillips. She is survived by her mother and step-father, Angela and Gregory Hatfield; her father Beau Allmon; siblings Shelby N. Allmon of Dublin, Keelie L. Allmon of Lewis Center; maternal grandparents Vicky and Larry McCauley of Marysville, Edward and Kimberly Phillips of North Lewisburg, Phil and Melody Hatfield of Delaware; paternal grandparents Bill and Sandy Allmon of Etna, Dan and Linda Crowe of Galloway; many aunts, uncles and cousins, including special cousins Connor and Cody Swayne; and many dear friends.

Calling hours will be held 2-5 pm Sunday at the INGRAM FUNERAL HOME, Marysville, where funeral services will be 11 a.m. Monday with the Rev. Clancy Cruise officiating. Burial will follow at Oakdale Cemetery.

In her memory, contributions may be made to the Union County Foundation, Attn: Union County Drug Court, PO Box 608, Marysville, OH 43040 or in care of the funeral home.
