Allison McKenzie Amonette

Allison Mckenzie Amonette "Alli Mack", age 21, of Crossville, TN, passed away on September 12, 2026. 

Allison was born on March 17, 2005, in Crossville, TN, daughter of Scott and Tammy (Ricketts) Amonette. 

She was a nursing student at Vol State, Registered Dental Assistant and a Server at Crawdaddy's West Side Grill in Cookeville, TN. 

Allison always wanted to help others, so nursing was the perfect path for her. For those that knew her, understood that "Stranger" was not a word that existed in Allison's vocabulary - she loved everyone she met. You felt like you'd known her forever. She loved her animals, actually ALL animals, and was all about a good road trip. She was a light to so many, always with an extra smile to give away to anyone who needed it. Allison loved hard, loved a good challenge, and loved her family fiercely. 

In addition to her parents, Allison is survived by her sisters, Chelsea Schubert (Kyle Stanush) and Carlee Beaty (Ethan); brother, Jackie Schubert; nieces and nephews, Willow, Knox and London Schubert, Wyatt and Stetson Stanush, and Harper Beaty; PePaw-Jeff Harris; Aunts, Angela Carr (Don), Robin Amonette (Abbey), and Alicia Ricketts; cousins, Hannah, Colton, Christopher, Isaiah, Ben, Sarah and Jacob; special family, Courtney Eroh, Elizabeth Shreve (Ali), Michelle Netherton, Jackie and Carolyn Schubert, Dalton Schubert and Chloe Schubert.

She is preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Ronald and Sonia Ricketts; Uncle Ryan Ricketts; paternal grandparents, DeWayne and Carolyn Amonette-Caruthers. Additionally, Carolyn’s first husband Fred C. Amonette. 

A Celebration of Life for Allison will be held at 290 County Farm Road (https://www.google.com/maps/search/290+County+Farm+Road?entry=gmail&source=g) in Cookeville, TN on Saturday, September 19, 2026 from 2PM to 6PM Central Standard Time. There will be a brief service at 6 PM.
