Alison, thank you for helping shape who I am. You opened your home to me as if it were my own, always welcoming me after school with frozen ice treats. You even set a place at the table, complete with a placemat and napkin neatly wrapped in a ring, waiting just for me.

I have always looked up to you and am deeply grateful for all you have done.

Your kindness and love will live on in all of our memories.
