10 years!! It seems like such a long time; yet sadly it feels like yesterday that you left us! I am 10 years older; but age of time does not make you're not being here any easier. You are soooo incredibly missed by anyone who was lucky enough to know you! I hope that you continue to watch over me, and your family bc it makes me feel better knowing that you do! Love you, Pally!!!

I feel your warmth around me
like your presence is so near,
I close my eyes to visualize
your face when you were here,
I remember the times we spent together
they are locked inside my heart,
For as long as I have those memories
we will never be apart.
Even though we cannot speak no more
my voice is always there,
Because every night before I sleep
I have you in my prayer.
Missing you and thinking of you today, for your Birthday and always, my pal!!

Hey Auntie. I gotta admit, as the wedding gets closer, I miss you more and more. I just wish you were here to share all the fun and details. I know you're looking down helping out and sending inspiration my way. Words really can't express how much I wish you were here... not only for the wedding, but just to be here. I love you and miss you so much.

Ally Pally: I can't believe that it has been 2 years since you left this world. So much has changed, yet soo much has remained the same. One thing that will never change as we all go on with our everyday lives is your absence...it has been one of the hardest things I have ever gone through, and continue to deal with daily is how I can't just pick up a phone to call you - or knock on your door just to b.s.; nothing has been the same without you - everything that is good is just missing something...I miss you soo much my pal, luv you!!!

Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can’t deal it’s so unfair
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven’s so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you’ve gone away
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
But black roses and hail mary’s
Can’t bring back what’s taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
And if I could trade
I would

To my Pally, There has been a void in soo many lives over this past year. It has been the hardest trying to grasp not being able to see you or talk to you; it is something I know I will never be over. I miss you every day; you were my best friend, a sister, a simply irreplacable part of my life. I take some comfort in remembering you often, when I hear lines from movies we watched zillions of times, songs we've sang over the years, people that we've known whose life you've also touched and we share a good time remembered, now always with a tear in our eye...you are soo missed and soo loved and you ALWAYS will remain the biggest and best part of my heart...love you, Pal!!!
May 21, 2011
My baby sister, I miss you so much. I try so hard to remember you with smiles and humor but it doesn't always work out that way. Sometimes it just hits me that you are gone and I can't help crying. Other times I remember something funny you said or some of our good times and I smile. I pray we all learn to smile more. Life isn't the same without you for any of us. I love you so much.

A year ago to day I recieved a call from Dad saying there was something wrong... with each passing call... the news was getting worse... and then the big call came and I knew life would never be the same. Seeing you there in the hospital bed was the hardest thing... Knowing your body was there but you couldn't hear me as I told you how much I love you and how this just wasn't fair. I know God has a reason for everything he does so there must be a reason he took you so suddenly. I do regret never getting to return that last call I recieved from you after Nana showed you the pics of our new townhouse, but I listened to your message a million times and it always made me smile. I love you so much and it feels like just yesterday we were laughing and joking around. I miss you and think about you everyday... I know the times when it's the worst you send me a sign that you're ok and it always eases the hurt and makes me smile. I am so lucky to have had you as my Aunt and I will love you forever. Love Always, Dana

My Love Allison, 1 year has passed since you left this world and entered God's world. I ask Him everyday to let us be reunited. I know that when God let's this happen, we will truly be in Heaven. We had 25 years of bliss from that first kiss. I miss you Al. I will never leave you. Your love, Jeff.

Auntie Al,
I have been dreading signing this book because it makes this real. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and miss you. Today is the start of a new and hopefully great year so it seemed like a good time to try and move on from this horrible loss. I can't tell you how much it hurts to say good bye. I always thought you would be there to do my hair on my wedding day and play with my kids like you did me and catch them doing all the things you caught me doing as a little kid... maybe they would even try to bride you with a dollar like I did. I just want you to know how much I love you and I don't think I will ever get over losing you, but I knoow you're up in heaven joking with Grandma and Richie and you finally get to see your dad looking down on me and I know you will be here in spirit on all the important days of my life. Good bye Auntie. I'll love you forever. Love, Your Pumpkin

Al: So on the radio today, I heard a Cheap Trick song...it so reminded me of you, and how we used to listen to Live at Budakon over and over. I am just missing ya every day; there are so many times something happens and I'm like, Oh I gotta call Al and tell her this, or talk to her about that. There is not one day that's gone by that I haven't heard a Zeppelin tune, or someone else that makes me think of you and how much I miss you!!! And then I am comforted to know that you are watching over all of those who loved you!!! Miss ya pally!!!

Ms. Anton, Karen, Dee Dee & Jeff, I'm so sorry for your loss. Allison was taken from you way too young. As you can tell by the number of people at the funeral home, Allison was loved! She was a wonderful person with a huge heart. She will be missed terribly.
Al, I am thankful for all the memories we had created over the years from Bridget's, Immaculate Conception, Barbs & Bosley. Many laughs together that will remain on my mind and in my heart always. I am so happy we were able to reconnect in recent years and I will cherish forever the kind words that were in your many e-mails. Gone, but never, ever forgotten. Love ya dear friend!

Diane & Jeffrey,
I can't put into words the pain that is in my heart for you. Diane, if there is ANYTHING I can do for you, please call me. Jeffrey, I watched you and Al grow up together. What a nice thing that was. Al always called me "Aunt Sharon." She was more of a niece to me than people in my own family. She will always live in my heart. Jeffrey, as always, if you need me, you know where I am. God bless you both and God bless Al! Aunt Sharon & Tom xo

Anton and Terry families - My deepest sympathies go out to you at this time. Even though Allison and I haven’t seen each other in 20 years we had exchanged emails in recent years and it wasn’t a surprise that she was the same sweet, caring girl I knew growing up. I can picture her smiling as she bobbed down the hallways at school – those and other memories I’ll hold dear forever. Your families are in my thoughts and prayers.
