We didn't know Alicia personally. However, we have known her parents and aunts for several years. In knowing them, we know she was a very special and loving woman. She was definitely an angel on earth, and our hearts are breaking for her family. May you all find a little comfort in this unbelievable tragedy in knowing you all have one more guardian angel looking down on you from heaven and protecting you.

I don't know Alicia personally, but her life page has really touched my heart. She sounded like an amazing person. Death, especially unexpected, is so hard to go through. A scripture that brings me comfort is 2 Kings 20:5. Here our creator verifies that "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. I am healing you." I will keep your family, especially those sweet little children, in my prayers tonight.

Alicia was my best childhood friend. She reached out her hand in first grade and said I'm Alicia ,do you want to be friends? And from that point on we were practically inseparable. Molly and Ray I'm so sorry. Alicia and I laughed everytime we were together. I will forever miss the sound of her laugh. She made my childhood fun and happy.Thanks for always being there,rest in peace dear friend.

A Tribute To Alicia:
We never really know how much we impact the lives of others during our lifetime...Our connection was brief compared to those you had with others; but, I too was touched by your light, grace, gentleness and struck by how full of life you were.
Now, your light in this world is gone but its radiance glows in those you loved and who love you.
Today, I too believe you stand in the Brilliance of Heavenly Light, Love and Peace---never to be forgotten!

Alicia is one of the most beautiful souls I ever had the privilege of knowing. I remember the many nights that I would sleep over to spend with her sister Heather, that Alicia would talk in her sleep. Some of the things that she would say were hilarious. Alicia loved to make people laugh and she will truly be missed.
