I am so sorry for the family's loss. Words can not express how sweet of a person she was. She will be remembered by us all. Alison used to cut my hair years ago and though we've only seen each other from time to time she was always so caring. She will be missed, may god keep you all strong through this difficult time.
My mom is currently in hospice I know how hard it is to watch someone you love so much struggle through this horrible disease. I read this poem in the hospital last week before she came home on hospice... just wanted to share.
