My God, I've only known for a short while about Allison's passing. Although I haven't seen Allison in 15 years, my life will be less now that she's gone. Never NEVER take anyone for granted. Tell me how I may serve to make this loss a little easier.

Allison was a friend of mine in elem., middle, and high school. She was always a kind person then and I'm sorry I didn't know her as well now, later in our lives. I am shocked as I just heard the news of her passing. My thoughts are with her family during this time.

Allison and I were close friends throughout high school and even when I went off to college. Every time we saw each other she'd run up to hug me and always had such a huge smile on her face. She was full of passion and love and kept us all on our toes. She will be greatly missed... My heart is with the Brusters and the Braggs during this time.

Dear Bruster / Bragg Family
I'm at a loss for words. I loved your daugther / wife and mother more then she may have ever known. Allison and I had a very special relationship, some may say, but we were always there for each other. She was one of my best friends and I will never forget her smiling face and her strong opinionated ways. When I feel the loss of her passing, I just look at her three beauitful children and I see her in all of you. Jeremiah, I'm here for you, so please never feel alone. Just ask, and I'll try to help with anything you may need. I know Allison would have done the same for me if the situation was reversed. You all are in my prayers.

Dear David, Shirley, Alex, Jeremiah and the kids, extended family and friends:
Words fail us at times like these. We were so saddened at learning of Allison's passing.
I can still remember the time me & Mark visited, when she was just a little girl, and sitting at our bedroom door waiting for us to wake up and play with her. I'll always have that memory of her. That beautiful face, eyes and smile.
There's a reason for making the most out of every precious moment God gives us.
We take comfort in knowing she's with Jesus and that those of us who know him as our Lord and Saviour will see her again.
Please know that you are being prayed for. That God will comfort you and give you strength for the days that lie ahead of you. Jeremiah, we are especially praying for you in raising Austin and Dane. Madison, you are in our prayers too sweetie. All of you are!!
Allison will be sorely missed.
We love you!

Allison always was and still is a free spirit. She will be missed. We are all better for having known her. She will always be with us. I'm sure she will be happy on the other side because she is a good soul. I pray for those she left behind to receive comfort to heal from the pain of this significant loss.

I have watched Allison grow from a teenager to a young woman, wife and mother of 3. What an amazing person she is! She brought smiles and laughter with her always. She could walk into a room full of darkness and bring light to it. She would always "tell you like it was!". And how I loved that about her! I will miss her smile and her kindness.
My prayers are with all of you.

To our Dear Ones,
To know Allison was to love her! I could always count on her to tell me what was what - no beating around the bush! Her smile and laughter will sorely be missed.
We hope you find some peace in the good memories and knowing that God now has a truly beautiful angel watching over all of us! We love you and are praying for you all.

Chatty, bright-eyed and opinionated, I had the pleasure of meeting Allison through her friendship with my daughter, Sharon. You just knew when she was in the room because she really energized the atmosphere.
My heart aches for you in the loss of your beautiful girl.

Some of our memories of sweet Allison include her caring heart when I was sick. She was always the first one to call and ask if I needed anything or just chat with me to let me know she was there. Allison always had a new and funny story about the children's latest discoveries and adventures. Her loving heart was once again revealed when birthdays or holidays came. She made sure no one forgot them, even making calls to remind others. Allison understood 'Family'. She would often say that she was willing to do anything for her family and that included her fighting spirit. She loved her children and her husband. She would often tell me that I (Jeremiah's mom), must of done something right when I raised Jeremiah, he was amazing, and she would say "I loved 'the crap out of him!" She had a way with words. Allison was both bold and truthful in expressing her feelings--something like a breath of fresh air in a world that flowers-up reality.
Bill and I both loved her and will miss her but will have wonderful memories and will forever be glad that God brought her into our lives on the back of Jeremiah's Bike that "Mother's Day", May 2005!
Thank you God for Allison and the blessings that she brought into our lives including the happiness of our Son Jeremiah and the three wonderful--beautiful--amazing grandchildren and her huge loving heart!
