I’m sorry to hear about Alison’s passing. I have many fond memories of her and am grateful that she was in my life as a teen and young adult. She made me laugh and I loved her style. I will always appreciate the things she did for me.

I remember Allison from back in JR High school here in Willard. I think it was after the 8th grade she left Willard and I never saw her again and I had no idea she had moved back into the area. She was a very nice person and had I known she was back around here I would have loved to talk to her again. My heart felt condolences to the family
