Alyson Weinstein Obituary

ALYSON WEINSTEIN Alyson Tara Weinstein, 42, of Wilmington, NC died Thursday 4/7/2016 surrounded by family.

She cared for so many in ways that will never be forgotten. She enjoyed caring for people, always making people comfortable around her, and in turn was loved and cared for by many. In Wilmington she later showed her passion and creativity in baking and designing cakes. Alyson is survived by her parents, Anita and Richard Weinstein of Leland, NC; her brother Marc Weinstein and wife Elizabeth, niece Aviva and nephew Sylvan Weinstein of Bellingham, WA; sister Jennifer Marshall and husband Steven Marshall, niece Carly Marshall, of Jacksonville, NC.

It wasn't until you and your family moved out of the Rivers that we met in upstate NY. We clicked immediately and continued our friendship once we returned home. Spent many weekends taking the bus to Princeton to spend time with you. We spent hours braiding my hair, and just enjoying each others company. You were one of a kind . . . I am so thankful that we spent time a couple of years ago together, but heartbroken that we won't be able to do it again. My heart is with your parents and the rest of your family. Love you, Alyson. Until we meet again . . . <3

My thoughts have been with you all! It's so hard to believe Aly has left this earth, but her soul is definitely with you all! There is not a memory of high school that does not include Aly! What a wonderfully creative, funny, smart, beautiful girl! I am honored to have been able to call her my friend. My deepest condolences.

Jon is still speechless. We tried every which way to get there today, to no avail. Our hearts are so heavy with grief and sadness for the Weinstein family.

May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of his hand. - Irish Blessing

I loved this woman, she was a bright and shining light. Always full of laughter and fun. We met at school and she became one of my biggest cheerleaders, always there to let me know I could do it. We shared tears of joy and frustration on a regular basis. Aly was so incredibly gifted, she loved her family and friends deeply. My heart goes out to all who loved her.
