I can remember walking with Allison down the aisle at John and Leslie’s wedding. She was always warm and welcoming to my family. She will be so missed

I’ve know Alison for 40 plus years. She was delightful! Always willing to listen and share her perspectives on life. She was a funny lady, I always felt so uplifted around her. I will miss you my friend ❤️❤️

Dear Leslie,

There are really no words to take away you pain. Just know you are never alone in this difficult time and weeks and months ahead  

I sure have been thinking of you, and wow, your sister and all you have said about her over the years, and in her obituary,  mirrors so much of you. Her infectious smile, loving heart, devoted friend and wife, generous spirit, incredible kindness, an infectious laugh annd joy,  and her strong faith, is how in so many ways what I would say about you! I know you were soul mates and always there for each other.   She clearly left a legacy that will put an imprint on so many hearts forever.

I can only imagine though, that the loss is so deep and painful. 

I am of praying that you and Sam and your family, find strength and feel all the love surrounding you to navigate these next few weeks.

I so wish I could come on Saturday to be with you. 💕🙏🌈

Much love, jan

Sam , Leslie, John and family. I was very saddened to hear this beautiful soul was taken much too early. I shall always remember meeting Alison at Salve,  becoming nurses, Boston, Hyannisport, and our Cape summers that began in Pocasset at her parent's home. We kept in touch , although not recent , but always met up as if no time has passed. Love and prayers to you and your family. She is part of our lives forever. I will always hear her laugh  and smile. xo Sue and Andy Shayne.

My family and I were deeply saddened when we heard the news. Muffin was always a bundle of joy every time we interacted with her, and was equally as kind. She will always be the cool aunt I never had, and I will forever cherish the time we spent together. May her bright and beautiful soul rest in peace.

Dear Leslie, I love looking at all the photos, especially of you and Alison together and of her and Sam. She seems like such a vivacious and loving person. She clearly brought joy to so many, most especially to you and your precious family. I know you and she spoke almost every day, so losing her must feel like losing a part of yourself. There are no words I can think of to lessen the pain and sorrow you must feel. I only hope that the memories of the two of you together will eventually bring you some peace.  I know it will be hard.  I am thinking of you every day,  and am sending you a long, loving virtual embrace.  I can't wait to do so in person. All my love, Lou Ann
