I simply can't believe that Allie is gone. We met in elementary school and became fast friends. She was so kind, gentle and loving. I always thought of her as a saint. And she was so beautiful always with her creamy skin, beautiful smile, and gorgeous blue eyes. I'm sure she is with god.

So sorry to hear of Allies passing. We will miss her kind nature and big blue "Collins" trademark eyes and lovely smiles at family gatherings.

Much love, Liz Harrington and family, Montpelier, VT
