I am so sorry to learn of Alison's passing. What great neighbors to have during my high school years. And Bruce, I'll always remember how distraught Alison was to bring home her first and only "B", and in typing no less . . . My thoughts are with you and her family.

My prayers are with Liz and Maddy and I will dearly miss my long-distance friendship with Alison, the one that we had shared, between Boise and Denver. See you again in Heaven!
