Dennis and family, I will miss Allison, as her spirit and positive attitude are such inspiration to me personally. I offer you my condolences, and I will never forget her. We had known each other for many years as co-workers at Sunoco, and then as associates at the Alumni group.
I know her last years in a wheel chair must have been challenging for her and for the support she got from you, and others. Allison was such a beautiful person, and I always enjoyed speaking with her, and asking her about her life, her activities and sharing stories of my life. She always took the time to share, to listen, and to give of her time and her talents.
I am hoping she is at peace with God, and that you find a way to grieve, but also to go on to honor her with your life and your carrying on a life well lived. You will be in my prayers. Hoping to see you soon.
With deepest sympathy

I went to Olney Elementary School and St James Church with Allison and had lost contact with her. Thanks to the resources available to us I was able to track her down but saddened to hear of her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with her friends and family.
