October 9, 2009
.........My family and I moved from Ferndale to Bellingham when I was in the fourth grade. It was a pretty tough transition for my siblings and I to leave all our friends and go to a new school. But on the day we moved in, Lynda, Shaun and Aly arrived at our front door with a batch of brownies and a welcome, and from then I knew we would be okay.
For about three years Aly and I would spend hours outside on the trampoline, her always teaching me new flips she learned in gymnastics. I always wanted to be as good as her. She never braged about it, though.
Aly was a great friend to have and spend time with. When her family and her moved from Larrabee road, it was a pretty hard adjustment.
Thank you Aly, for being my friend. My family and I will always pray. We love you.
.....Liya and the rest of us Khizhnayks.

Dear Lynda & Family. I am saddened to read about another young, beautiful life being taken too soon. I can feel for you all so much. It reminds me of the loss of my two young children many years ago. I was very angry at God for a long time, but I soon could feel his love and guidence to help me survive the trauma. My family and friends were my salvation and helped me to deal with that difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. I hope that you find joy in all of the wonderful times that you shared with Aly. From my family to yours, we hope you will find some peace.

Dear Lynda and family. Words can not express the sorrow we feel for the loss of your beautiful daughter Aly. We loved coaching her in gymnastics as she always gave us her best. She was a ray of sunshine on the cloudyest day. We were proud of her in gymnastics and swimming, and honored to have her as part of our Leading Edge North family.Our deepest sympathy always.
Aly, our beautiful daughter

Oh Aly, how sad we all are. I know you are having fun and keeping busy in heaven but our hearts ache to see you again. Jazzy will miss out knowing you. Hannah and Zoe will miss you painting their nails and helping them swim. May God bless you and keep you safe until we meet again. It was an honor to be your aunt and uncle.

To the Fell family, I am very sorry for your loss. I knew Aly as a classmate, and I remember what a friendly, determined, and bright personality she had. She was a wonderful student, and though I never saw her swim, I heard she was wonderful at it. Me and my family's prayers are with you.

Aly was a remarkable young woman in so many ways, but was always so humble about her talents and abilities. Her radiant smile and sweet personality brought out the best in everyone here at Windward. She didn't miss a thing in Spanish, and I had really looked forward to having her in class. "Perla", you will be deeply missed! Fell family, I pray that God comforts you and gives you some peace.
August 14, 2009
May you find comfort and peace knowing she is in God's loving arms and that you'll see her again in heaven. My thoughts & prayers are with you.

May God hold the Fell family close to His heart during their time of grief. It was my pleasure and joy to work with Aly during her 5th and 6th grade years at North Bellingham Elementary. Often on a Monday morning my question to Aly would be " So what did you create this weekend?" Many times she would show me a pair of earrings or something else she created. Aly was a beautiful young lady, full of life and always willling to help a friend or classmate. I feel honored to have shared a small part of Aly's life. It is my prayer that her family will find peace and comfort during the days, weeks and months to come. Aly you were loved by many and will be missed deeply.
August 12, 2009
To the Fell family, Our heartfelt condolences to your entire family, as well as the BBST family. Our daughter swam with Aly, and greatly enjoyed and admired her. Reading about her over this past week, we can see why. She was an amazing sweet spirit, and our family will never forget her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Becky and Dave Billings

It was a blessing to be in high school with Alyssa for freshman year. She wrote in my yearbook at the end of middle school that she couldn't wait til we were off in college, and it's so hard to realize that she won't be there then, that she's not here anymore. the memory of her humble brilliance is an inspiration and though I never did see her in the pool, many people and the time she devoted to swimming testified to her fierce determination in competition as well. This is an immeasurable loss and my deepest prayers are with her family and all the community as they struggle with the tragedy of her death. Thank you, Aly, for being a shining example of a good person on this earth.miss you always.
August 11, 2009
My deepest sympathy to Aly's family. One can only imagine the depth of your grief losing such a lovely and accomplished young lady. I'm a third cousin, and my only acquaintance is through her obituary, written with such heart and love. My thoughts and prayers are with you. The world is a better place having had her in it.

Dear Fell Family,
It was such an honor and pleasure to teach your daughter and sister in Spanish class this past year at Windward High School. I am deeply saddened by her passing. We miss her so very much, and she will be remembered daily, especially in class, when we use her favorite verb and activity - 'nadar'/ to swim, in Spanish.
In addition to her many special nicknames, the one she picked for us to call her in first year Spanish at Windward High School this past year was 'Perla' or Pearl. It seems so appropriate that she chose this name as it reflects her love of water, her joy and brightness that she shared with others, her solid athletic and academic accomplishments as well as her talent for making jewelry.
I remember most checking in with Perla about her practices or meets before or after class, along with her good friend Marciana/Lizzie and her plans. Perla's dedication to her sport and academics was very inspiring to me. She always put her all into everything she did, mastering quality and quantity with ease and a smile.
Sending many thoughts of care, support, strength and hope to you,
Layne Martin
August 11, 2009
Love you Aly. You will be forever missed. This is by far the most difficult thing our family has gone thru, each of us is holding your dear cousins closer and appreciating each and every one of them more than ever. Thank you for teaching us the value of dedication and self motivation. You set the bar high for the rest of us, hopefully we will learn and be able to follow in your footsteps.
Hope to see you in Heaven someday, we can go shopping for jewels and party dresses.

Dear Fell Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I knew her very well. she brought me up when I was really down, now that she is gone I feel really empty inside. She was a great friend to me and everyone she knew. she could bring you up when you were in your worst time, she could tell you it was going to be okay and it really happened. she was the type of girl that was going to make her dreams come true. She was going to become an Olympic champion. I just really wish that she was still here she was the one girl who would really make a difference in this world. She always said that she wanted to go to Australia and live there. I just hope that I could see my good friend one last time, but now that will never happen. Again I am so sorry to what happened to your daughter Linda you must feel awful, but you are in my prayers.

I will miss you and remember you always. Yours was the first smiling face I saw when I came to coach for BBST. Thank you for welcoming me hun...we were all blessed to have known you.
To Lynda and family, my love and prayers are with you...I'm so very sorry for your loss.

I am deeply sorry for your loss of Aly. She was a stand out on BBST, not only for her amzing talent, but also her spirit and her smile! I only knew her as long as I was on the team, which was by far not long enough. As a new swimmer, she was a big inspiration to me. I thank her so much for that. Our team will not be the same, but her spirit will live on in all her friends that she left on her team.

I am so sorry for the loss of Aly. I didn't know her for long, but her smile always lit up the pool. In fact, I'm not sure I ever saw her not smiling. I wish I'd had more time to spend with her, because I know she was a great friend. Aly created an amazing family of swimmers around her, and we're all devastated by her loss. Her memory will always live on in the hearts of everyone that she inspired.

Each morning at school, I would ask Alyssa about her swim training and she would smile. She swam in the early mornings, long before most of us are awake. Counting the laps, she would humbly say a mile or two; there would be more training in the evening. Alyssa balanced so much in life, earning straight-As while turning in work of outstanding quality and creativity. I have never known a student with so much talent and drive.
Aly was a shining star. She is a model of how to live life to the fullest and I am so very happy to have known her. I'll miss her dearly.

I am so very sorry about what has happened to Aly. She was one of the nicest, most sincere people i have ever had the opurtunity to get to know in my life. Her smile could light up a room, and her ability to make anyone laugh will never be forgotten. i am so very lucky to have gotten to spend as many great times with her as i did and it is so unfortunate that it had to stop here. But i know that all of the memories will live forever, and she will never be forgotten.
