Not sure what to say?

While at Thanksgiving dinner the other day with my sister and her family I met a friend of hers who is in the bicycle business. I mentioned to Ginny that the person who taught me how it ride a 2 wheeler was none other than Ally, not even knowing that she had passed.

My sincere condolences to Ally's family and friends. I worked with Ally at Columbia, and we shard many a laugh and good times. She left for another position, and I Couldn't believe she was leaving me. I know you are making the Angel's laugh.

I didn't have the privilege of knowing

inside laugh,and those facial expressions that "said it all" while we
would reminiscence.Her love of life,

I, too, grew up on Greeby St, one of the most populated streets with kids in the city of Phila. but Ally always stood out among the many with her dazzling always present smile that will always be her trademark along with her kindness. She was my next door neighbor along with all of the bewitching blond haired, blue eyed Shaw girls. We shared secret message knocks on the adjoining walls with our codes and there was never a dull moment. Ally will be dearly missed by all, but her smile will live...

Ally I know is so very very proud at the joyous way her family and friends expressed there love and memories of a life cut so short. Marty and I attended her service yesterday. We were just overwhelmed at the sadness of her loss but we took home a feeling of comfort and peace and also a sense of pride and I now realize just how lucky I am to be a part of Allys' family. It was the greatest celebration of someones life I ever experienced and thank God I was a part of it. We will miss Ally...
