Alexis was the most genuine, fun loving, and happy girl I've ever met despite any situation. She was always laughing and being a true original. My kids and I loved spending time with her and Landen. We will never forget you.

I went to school with Alexis and worked with her at Kohl's as well. She was a very well liked girl and always had a smile on her face. I never met her family, but my thoughts and prayers go out to you all in this very difficult time. Just remember Alexis' smiling face and that she is now your guardian angel. God bless!!
