Been praying and thinking about your family and close friends all day. It is hard to believe it has been 18 years. You continue to impact people as you were a light to all those around you showing how to Love God, Love People for who they were!

Hey Ally, I was thinking about you today. I know you are living amongst the angels, and your beautiful, kind spirit shines on making heaven and earth better. Those of us left behind struggle on without you. Your mother in particularly has had a rough time lately and is struggling with her eyesight. Please ask god to bless her as we ask god to bless you and all of us. Love God, Love people! We love you.

5 years, unbelievable. I thought I wouldn't make it 5 minutes without you. Some how I have managed to survive. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. Can't wait to be with you again.
Love,

Today you would have been 21. I miss you and love you. I wonder what your life would have been like. Would you be married and have babies. Would you have gone to college? You are missed by so many people. You are always in our hearts.

Ally,
Last week I found a book you made when you were in the 5th grade. "Ally's Adventures". I remember when you made it. But didn't recall that you had dedicated it to your Dad. So for Father's day I bought a big cookie (your favorite), and Kelsey made a card with pictures of you and her. And we gave him your book.
I love you and miss you so much.
Love,
Mom

Ally Angel,
Yesterday was Daddy's and Grandma's Birthday. Gma turned 75.
There wasn't much of a celebration for your Daddy. As you already know your Papa Briggs passed away yesterday. I can picture you there at the gate of heaven with your bright smile welcoming him home.
I miss you so much.
Love,
Mom

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALLY GIRL! WE LOVE YOU FOREVER AND EVER!!!!!!!!!
November 2, 2008
I have to tell you this its so cute.. Colby celebrated her birthday last weekend and one of her friends gave her a best friend necklace and you would never believe this but Brianna said Kori and Ally have those too.. and I just looked at her and was like how do you remember that.. she just shrugged her shoulders and said i don't know.. I miss you so much we all do.. if you saw all 3 of the lil girls you wouldn't even reconize them they're 9 8 and taylor will be 7 in December..they are growin up so fast.watching them together reminds me so much of you kels and i... they scream when the jonas brothers come on tv and fight over who gets who just like we did with nsync..and they fight over all the dumbest lil things and make up 5 minutes later just like us.
Well I love you and I miss you more and more everyday.
Love always,
Kori

My precious angel girl. Heartache & tears & smiles are all a part of my memory of you. Couldn't bear to look at this guest book on your 18th; so wanted to celebrate it with you. Mom, Dad & Sis feel so incomplete without you. Wish we could build that stairway to Heaven & bring you back to us. Hope someday to hug you again & tell you I love you.

Dearest Ally,
I miss you so much. The whole month of May was hard. First there was prom and mother's day. Then came Uncle Terry's graduation and your class graduation followed by memorial day. There was one bright spot. Cousin Dana delivered a beautiful baby girl, Emma Lacey.
Today your baby sister turned 16. We miss you everyday but even more on the "special days".
Love Always,

Ally, what can i say is so hard for me to Imagine that you've been gone from us for a year. I still see your face everyday, I think of your first Easter Sunday when you Mom dressed you up with the little hat/dress. how you always hated me to take you picture but i did anyway.The fast trip to Tucson and White Sands NM the ohs & ahs from the back seat and the get us out of here when we passed the Cattle feed lots, you and your Dad on the rides at Frontier City and you Mom saying I not looking. The big white Sun Glasses. Or one of the last times I saw you when I stopped by your work just to see your smile' bought some cookie cutter i didn't need just so I could go through your line. you just shaking your head @ me. You were a very special person. we all miss you so much.
Love you always Uncle Dave

Ally Baby,
Somehow we managed to survive this past year. We've dealt with so many first... without you.
We are called survivors. But really we are the walking wounded. The hole in our hearts will never heal.
I am ready to be with you again. But Dad and Kelsey still need me here. One day all of us will be together again.
I love you & I miss you.

Dear Daughter,
Oh, how I miss you so. I have no idea how to celebrate Christmas without you. I cherish the picture of the four of us taken last Christmas. You girls in your hats and I in my antlers. It was a good day. The best Christmas ever. None of us knew we would only have two more weeks with you...
I love you so much,
December 6, 2007

I was just thinking about you and your parents and your sister. You must know that you have made a great impact on everyone you have ever came in contact with. You have warmed the hearts of alot of people!! I want to thank you for that. By the way, Your parents are pretty cool people. Keep your eys on Your sis.

Hey Baby, its been awhile since i've been on here, sorry. I miss you so much "punkin" there isn't a day that goes by that i don't think of you. Yesterday, Kelsey fell asleep on the couch and i looked at her and swore it was you, you two look so much alike, so i just stared at her thinking of you. Kelsey got her car, and i'm scared to death, any advice would be welcome. I had a dream a while back of you. You were just standing there smiling {like always} and i was thinking is this really you and you came over and sat down on my lap and started to carry on about things and i just put a bear hug on you like you wouldn't believe, and i said that i loved you, then it got wierd, won't go there, but that made my day Baby, I love you so much and can't wait to be with you, but have to I guess. Your "DADDY"

November 7, 2007
Ally Baby,
This past month has been a hard one for me. First your bith date, then Sadies b-day, and Halloween. You had plans for Halloween. The four of you were going to go as the spice girls. How fun would that have been. I was given a picture of you and Sadie dressed up in the pink flamingo costumes last year. Good Times. I got to see Brooke, Nicole and Alyssa dressed up. I like it that they still come and visit.
Also, I found a picture you drew, dated 2-15-06, it is of angel wings, and says, I'll get my wings one day... guess you knew... LGLP
I miss you so much.
Love, Mom
October 7, 2007
Allyson,
We released balloons on your birth date. But the reality is there are no more birthdays or up coming graduation for you. No possibility of marriage or beautiful babies. I miss everything about you. And will miss all the things you never go to do.
Love,
Mom

Hi Ally, I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday. I didnt know that we could still sign in here. I was just curious, so I opened your sight, to see what would happen. Your parents organized a balloon launch for you, but I am sure you already know this, and I know you were watching down on everyone. I wish I could have been there!!
I also wish you and Travis could have had time to take a trip out here to Arizona, to visit me. After everything I have heard about you, I would have been honored to have met you! I know you are in a better place now. I cant wait to meet you one day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLY!!
October 4, 2007
You're now the big 1-8.
We always talked about what you would do, now we have to do everything without you.
I miss you so much.
Nothings the same.
I'm thinking I should be over it.
It's been 9 months.
But it's like it just happened yesterday but then again, it feels like it happened like 3 years ago.
I miss everything.
All the good times.
Even if we did get in trouble sometimes.
=]
I'd rather been getting in trouble with you than have you not here.
I still feel like it's some horrible dream that someone needs to wake me up from.
But i'm slowly starting to realize, it's not.
You're not coming back.
I don't know how long it'll be til i see you again.
I miss you.
I love you.
I always have and always will.
Through thick and thin.

Hey Miss Ally, Summer is supposed to be winding down, but it is hot out there. I miss you baby. For some reason you had to leave us way to soon. It is so hard. Be with Kelsey as she heads back to school. I know you will. You are a Good Girl. We are so proud of you. We MISS YOU and LOVE YOU so much!!!
August 7, 2007
Baby Girl,
I miss you so much. We all do. The girls, Christine, Sadie and Nicole came to visit, it meant a lot to me. It was so good to see them and catch up on their lives. We were even hanging out on my bed. But, when they left I was so sad. I was missing you even more. I miss you and your friends coming in and out of the house. It's too quiet here without you. I miss doing things for you and hearing about your day. Life is empty without you.
Love,
Mom

Ally,
Your Mom, Dad, and sister were here in California and just left today. I just learned of your LGLP. I am so happy to hear you represented that way!!!!! We were all laughing about how your Dad use to play Santa Clause and your Mom played Mrs. Clause for Cody. Cody and I were so touched by the visit we have cryed all day since they have left. Cody was like a kid again playing with Kelsey. He looked out for her and gave his coat to her to keep warm. Kelsey fell asleep with Cody and their heads were touching and I see how he was trying to comfort her. Cody told me while your family was on the boat to the island "I could hang out with the Briggs all day." What we have witnessed is friendship that is full of love and respect. Cody has a respect for your Mom and Dad I have never seen him have for anyone before. He remembers the care they gave him as a child. It was your birth and your death that brought us together. It is true you brought communities together. We truley love the Briggs!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a saying, if you die with only a handful of friends your doing well. WE ARE SO GREATFUL AND BLESSED TO HAVE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AS WHAT WE CONCIDER TO HAVE AS THE THOSE ON OUR HAND OF FRIENDS. I was also greatful to be able to to talk openly with your family about their feelings, the things they remember about you, the way you were, and how you made their life complete. When you love someone you do not want to see them hurt. But if you do have to see them hurt such as your family, you at least want to hold their hand and during the journey and be their friend.
You are so greatly missed and loved. By the way, tell Jesus I said Hello!!!!!!!!!

I miss you Ally

Ally,
Dad and I don't know how to fill the hole we have in our hearts.
You were missed on Kelsey's birthday, just as we miss you everyday.
Fiona passed away on Memorial day. Travis and I buried her in the backyard next to Kiki. Elizabeth said a prayer for her. Becca was here too.
Love you

Ally,
You are always on my mind and in my heart. I love you and miss you.
I've been listening to the song "My God is an Awesome God. I remember how when you were younger, you, Kelsey, and Cousin Marc would listen and sing that song over and over. And I think of how Rich Mullins life was cut short also.
I need you to keeping sending me little signs.

I was sitting in class listening to a song that they played for you, arms of an angel so I came to your site and I have been reading what everyone says. Everyone misses you so much baby gurl I seen Kelsey the other day and from a glance I thought it was you, I didn’t say anything to her thought but she is really growing up and shes really starting to look more and more like you everyday. Its still hard to believe what happened you didn’t deserve to go but god has plans for all of us and maybe his plan for you was to go to heaven and watch over all of us. Sometimes it scares me because im afraid to die ( its my worst fear, and you know that.) do you remember that night I called you and told you about my aunt and uncle that was in that fire, well im sure you already know but my uncle died on the 27th but hes in a better place just like you, Ty, Chelsea, Dut and all of our other loved ones.. but I better get off here so I can get some word done I love you ally and I miss you
Love,

April 12, 2007
Hey Baby,
I was just stoping by to say i love you. and i miss you so much.
remember how everyone always said that you and Kels look alot alike and i always said that i didnt think you guys didnt look that similar. Well i am starting to see it now, im sorry you have to miss her growing up, but she is starting to change, she's starting to get your looks now. But i guess you can just see from up there in heaven. I went to your grave today. it just doesnt look right without a headstone, but dont worry ur mom is getting you one. its suppossed to look good and have your pic and all! Well im going to go to your house now, your dad is basicALLY going to switch out 2 of my tires so my car wont get screwed up.
I LOVE YOU and MISS YOU.

SLEEPYTIME ANGEL
Tattletales and whimpers arrive with little girls.
Lacey bows and ribbons
Tousled, scattered curls.
But when her head begins to nod
Secure in my safekeeping…
I must be mistaken
For I see an angel
Sleeping!
PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN

God's own sweet surprise
underneath the mischief

February 11, 2007
Treasa and Family, I am sorry for your loss. Being a mother myself I can just only imagine what grief your family is going through. I did not know Allyson, however, my daugher (Amy Moore) had a class with Kesley at Campus. Also, my husband just heard of your loss last night when he seen you at the Quick Trip (Robert Moore). I am so sorry for your loss and just wanted to let you know our prayers are with you and your family. Debbie and Robert Moore. (Haysville,Kansas)

Darling.
I can't believe it.. It's already been a month... I miss you so much.. We all do.. We're trying to go on with life as normally as we can without you.. Which is nearly impossible.. I can't wait to see you again.. I love you so much!

Hey Guys,
Teresa, it was great talking to you last night. You will find your new normal, it will just take time. As I said last night, start in the corners, and move to the edges. You may not know yet what this new puzzle is going to look like, you just have to trust that it can be as beautiful as the last one.
As Ally got older I was hoping that I would get a chance to pay her back for giving her birthday. For those that don't know, Ally agreed to let me have her cousin/my husbands funeral on her birthday(10/4), so that I didn't have to do it on our anniversary(10/3), or my birthday(10/5). I made the mistake of waiting for the "right time" to tell her thank you instead of just doing it.
We're here for you guys. Anything you need, call. We love you.
February 8, 2007
Baby girl, I can't believe it has been a month already. I hate that I can no longer hug you, touch your hair, see your smile or tell you I love you in person.
Me, Dad and Sis really need you to keep sending us those little signs. They help us get through the tough days.
I love you so much.

Hey Ally its hard to believe it has been a month since you left us..there isnt a day that goes by that we all dont think about you. I'm sure that you would be shocked at how many lives you have truely touched and made better! You have shown everyone how to love others and how to be a great friend. Your legacy of Love God Love People has touched many peoples lives and i believe many people are better because of it...thankyou for being such a great friend to so many! We all love you!

To the Briggs family.....We do not know you personally but our daughter (Karen Adams) worked with Allysons dad at Boeing so we only know of you by her sharing with us things about her co worker and friend and his family.... so please know that our love and prayers go out to you at this time and days ahead....God knows what is best for all and at times like this its very difficult to understand but we can only trust and believe that for whatever reason he knew it was time for Alllyson to go to her heavenly home....sincerely Lowell and Sue Adams

Hey Al.
I thought about you a lot today. I've been thinking a lot lately, still, ever since this happened, how big of an impact your death has made in my life. It stinks more than ANYTHING in the world that this had to be my wake up call from God to cherish my life and the wonderful people in it, but it did. And you better believe that I have changed. We used to talk frequently about death in our 3-hour-long talks at night when we couldn't sleep. You remember how you used to always say, "If you ever died, I just don't know what I'd do! I'd probably just have to die too.." and in reply, I would say the same thing? I never thought that it would come so soon for you, but then again, who ever does? Look at the amazing legacy you have left for us all! IT'S SO COOL, ALLY! To see so many people change for the better because of your LGLP legacy. It will continue to be my prayer that this will continue to touch people everywhere. Jeez.. you were just always so cool. Always so laid back. You taught me how to be lazy. So lazy that I didn't even want to get up to go to the bathroom. Today when I was at the mall, everything that I saw, all the wacky, wild things reminded me of you. I saw you wearing all of them. Next week is Spirit Week. Remember how we used to wait so anxiously for Spirit Week just so we could dress all crazy and stuff. Like last year for your 16th birthday, it was retro day, and we had a lot of fun. Monday is "wear what your parents would have worn in high school". Oh, you would just love it. I'll be sure to be extra crazy. Just for you. I was thinkin' about going to DAV to see if I could find some crazy outfit to wear, and I remember all of our pictures from that one time at DAV. Wow... I can't even fathom how many memories we shared together.. I'm just glad I can remember so many. I'm so sorry that we began to grow apart. But if there's one thing I've learned from this, Alfred Gail (hahahahah), it's to live and to love RIGHT NOW. Thank you for helping me to really learn what that means. Oh, I love you so much.. I'm so glad that I got to tell you that so many times.
BFF's for ETERNITY! :)

MY BABY GIRL I remember you would sometimes lay your head in my lap and i would stroke your hair, or after you got off work i would rub your "stinky" feet. When you were a baby i would hold and rock you i didn't want to share, i was in bliss, and it made me complete. You grew into such a fine young lady that really made me proud, and even though i only had you for seventeen short years, they were good and memorable, and now in shroud, but i still can't dry up all my tears. My tears are somtimes happy and sometimes sad, i think about you everyday and it shows, but you're in my mind and heart and i'm glad, the feeling of not being able to touch you really blows. So for you my BABY GIRL here it goes. This little piggy went to the market, this little piggy stayed home, this little piggy had roast beef, this little piggy had none, and this little piggy went wee wee wee all the way home. tickle, tickle tickle. Love you BABY GIRL. Daddy. LGLP.

O Ally!
I remember that the first time I saw you at church I thought you were the coolest and prettiest person I knew.I will always remember your striped socks, big sun glasses and your beautiful smile! I love you so much and I miss you. You taught me now to open my eyes and be the best person I can be. I believe you are in heaven and I cant wait till I see you again.Thank you for being such an amazing inspiration to my life. You really are an amazing person and youve taught me to live for God and not to care about what others think. Thank you for everything. Also....to the Briggs family. You had an amazing daughter and sister. I pray that God will be with you and help us all through this tragedy. God Bless

Dear Ally in heaven, I know u were an amazing person because my lil brother Cooper loves the heck outa you. i know we only talked a couple of times but i always thought you were so pretty and kewl. You and your sister would always come to our house and hang out in our family room, You are such a pretty girl. You made so many people stop and realize how much family means and how much about what being yourself should be like, I wish i would have known you better, because your sister is amazing we have been hanging out latley and she sure does think alot of you. I love being your neighbor, and i want you to no i am always here for your little sister.

Ally Briggs family...I didn't know Ally. I just recently found out that my son was in a class with Kelsey. My family grew up in Conway Springs and knew some of your other family members also. I wanted to let you know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Oh Ally.
You were simply...amazing.
Like I have said before, I don't exactly remember meeting you, I just remember us becoming friends--instantly.
You were always always hilarious with your crazy laughs and goofy dances. And the clothes. Let's see...there was that Flinstone's shirt, that button-up one with all of the sharks on it, and then those orange-and-black striped tights were always amazing.
I always felt as thought I could never pull off that style, but you helped me to realize that I can do whatever I want to do, and wear whatever I want to wear.
So thank you, Ally, for helping me to become my true--crazy--self.
I miss you and wish that I had picked up the phone to call you. Because frankly...I've been missing you for months. But all I have to do is remind myself that I WILL see you again soon.
I love you Ally Briggs.
See you later.
