Publish in a newspaper
Allison was born June 12, 1993 in Columbus, Ohio. She attended Tree of Life Christian schools and graduated from Worthington Christian High School in 2012.
Allie attended Indiana Wesleyan University where she earned a bachelors degree in education in 2016 and a Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD, OTR/L) in 2020. She also played soccer for the IWU Wildcats and co-founded the IWU chapter of Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Allies graduate research was published in The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2020.
Allie practiced pediatric Occupational Therapy in Columbus, OH, Charlotte, NC and most recently in Maui, Hawaii. Allie was passionate about her work and the countless special needs children that she helped. Aside from her work, Allie loved her family and friends and spent her time being involved with various local churches, charitable organizations and small groups. Allies joy was contagious as she brought people together for community service, fun and adventures in every place she lived.
Allie is survived by her parents, Curt and Janet Custer of Westerville, OH; sister, Stephanie Crosby; brother, Jacob Custer; brother-in-law, Adam Crosby; sister-in-law, Liz Custer; nieces, Addison Crosby and Lillyan Custer; nephews, Lucas Crosby, Greyson Custer and Bodie Custer; maternal grandfather, Glenn Rudicil of Franklin, OH; paternal grandparents, Robert and Charlotte Custer of Pemberville, OH. She is also survived by many loving aunts, uncles and cousins who will miss her greatly. She was welcomed home by her maternal grandmother, Mona Rudicil.
A celebration of Allies life will be held on Saturday, March 18th at Rock City Church Polaris - 2150 E Powell Rd, Columbus, OH 43240 with visitation beginning at 9:30 AM, Service following at 11 AM EST.

When I heard of Allie´s early home going, I was in the country of Belize with a group of IWU occupational therapy students. Almost exactly four years earlier, I had been sitting in the same place with Allie and some of her classmates from IWU.
Allie was a bright light for the Lord in Belize and while she was in our OTD program.
I am truly grateful to have know and taught Allie during her all-too-short life. I am heartbroken for the Custer family.
