Amanda Allred

Amanda Delillia Allred was born on April 26, 1978. She was adopted by Nila Annette Holt and Lawrence (Lonnie) Keith Holt Jr. in 1986 and sealed to them in the temple in 1987, along with her two brothers Mike and Jason Holt. Amanda grew up in the Salt Lake Valley surrounded by family and developed deep relationships with everyone around her. Soon, Amanda and Stormie became inseparable sisters.

Always a bright light, Amanda made it her life goal to bring happiness and contagious giggles to everyone around her. She always loved the little things in life from dressing up clothes that matched her mom during mother-daughter dates to getting down in the dirt to fix engines with the boys. Amanda enjoyed making chaos if it brought joy by full-fledged indoor water fights and any prank she could think of. She was also very protective and never afraid to stand up to a bully.

In school, Amanda excelled often needing harder work in class. She enjoyed talking and used her voice often in her classes and in choir becoming one of the choir's top singers. She attended South Jordan High School where she met and later married Billy Zimmerman in 1994. She gave birth to her son James in 1995, daughter Sheresa in 1997, and daughter Kallista in 1999. She met Thomas Gonzales soon after Kallista's birth in 1999, fell in love, and had her daughter Morgn in 2001. Amanda focused on raising her kids and always put them first.

Amanda attended Southwest Technical College, completing her Certification in Computer Technology and Building Programs. She enjoyed puzzles and problem solving. After her kids left the nest, she moved from Cedar City to Beaver, Utah. Here she literally fell head over heels for Bradford Allred in 2022. Deciding she wasn't gonna wait for him, she proposed to and married him the same year. Brad and Amanda married on September 9, 2022 and were later sealed in the temple on March 3, 2026. Together, Brad and Amanda conquered the world together until her passing. Amanda remains bright and full of life in all of the hearts of everyone she left behind.
