Altee Tenpenny was a son and brother who brought joy to his family since he arrived. 

From Little Rock, Arkansas, Altee unselfishly gave himself to many others to lift them up and support them in difficult times. Regardless of challenges he faced he always donned a smile.

Playing football passionately is how many will remember him, from his church and little league...

-to the US Army All American game 
-to the University of Alabama Roll Tide Bio 
-to UNLV UNLV Bio , 
-to Nicholls State University Nicholls State Bio . 

Although his journey took him many places that gave others a chance to be blessed by his infectuous personality, he made sure that everyone knew that he would always be a part of the Alabama football team of brothers. In his own words..."It's still Roll tide!"

Altee was a brother to many who he played with, ran next to, or suited up with while enjoying the sports he loved. He left us (on Tuesday, October 20) with memories that will never be forgotten and a space in each of our lives that can never again be filled. Now, we are left to share our memories and allow his life to inspire change and purpose in ours.

Lets join one another in this effort to show love and support to Altee's family for all that he gave to us...moments of joy, laughter, excitement, and forever a memory of his smile...

Rest well Altee. We know that you are with God, our Father, and making Jesus smile!
