Priscilla was known for serving others through cooking especially for her family and church. She enjoyed canning, making Christmas candy for everyone, cooking for events at church and was well known for her historical chocolate gravy recipe. Her and James loved to go on road trip vacations together and discover new places. When they were home though, it was all about spending time with her family.

She is preceded in death by her parents Leo and Dovie Allensworth; siblings Lona Allensworth, Flossie Long, Lorene Long, Buster Allensworth, Harve Allensworth, Florene Long, J.B. Long, Baby Allensworth, Kenneth Allensworth, Esther Dixon, Dennis Allensworth, and Della Jean Williams. A visitation will be held Monday, November 9, 2020 from 9am-8pm with family present 5-7pm at Ford Funeral Service. The funeral service is at 11:00am on Tuesday, November 10, 2020 at Meadowood Baptist Church in Midwest City, Oklahoma with Pastor Bob Rutherford officiating with interment to follow at Arlington Memorial Gardens.
We would like to thank Sirese, C.J. and Linda at Hospice Quality Care for their amazing care of Priscilla. We would also like to thank Susan Long, Priscilla’s niece, who helped our family through this difficult time more times than we can count, especially the last night.
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." -Philippians 4:13
