I miss her so much. My beautiful, loving girl. Go rest now Punkin with your Grandma Brann, Grandma and Granddaddy Reichling.
Alie sings with the angels while we weep.
Alie I have known and loved you you since the day you were born. I’m sure god has a plan for a special person like you. I’ll always love and miss you. Mike
Alie we love and miss you so much . We will miss that smile that could light up the darkest of rooms and that laugh of yours was so infectious it made everyone feel great. I find some relief in knowing that you and grandma Brann are now watching over us. We will hold tight to the wonderful memories we have of all the great times spent with you. Until we meet again we love you and miss you so much.
Alie was a beautiful young woman and will truly be missed. We have a beautiful angel watching over us now.
We never met Alie but we ‘knew’ her thru her Aunt Jo and all the wonderful stories she’d tell us about her wonderful niece. We share your sorrow and send our deepest sympathies for your unimaginable loss. You are all in our thoughts.
Carol Ann & Mel, Our heartfelt condolences go out to you and the many people who loved your precious Alie. May your happy memories of her life help to give you comfort. Paige & Emmett
Alie, I have only known you for 3 years but you have brightened my life so much. I looked forward to seeing you each June where ever the Panther Reunion took us. I know you are at peace and in no more pain. You are the litte sister I never had, now you will be another Angel I can look up to as I do with my Mother. I love you and miss you so much. Daddy misses you too – but he knows you and Mommy are probably in Heaven talking about him.. He loved you as his own Granddaughters.
Carol Ann and Melvin, Words seem so inadequate to share with you – our deepest and heartfelt sympathies at the loss of your precious daughter Alie. While we haven’t seen her in a few years the pictures on Facebook clearly show the beauty she shared with all she knew. You and your family are in our prayers and hearts. Heaven surely has a beautiful Angel. Sarah Bauer and Jeff Heimerman
My deepest Sympathy on your loss of your beautiful daughter. I went up Monday AM to see you all and found out the news. I wasnt able to stop by the last 2 days of the week and felt so bad that I missed seeing her and you both. My deepest Sympathy to you Mom and Dad and my prayers and love are sent to you both. It was a pleasure getting to know her and to be able to get her to laugh and smile on many occasions. She will always be in my thoughts. Love Mr Ron
I just read about Alie in the Washington Post. She seems like a true angel and looks like one too. I can only imagine how blessed you were to have her in your life and I’m sure she will be deeply missed.
I was heartbroken to learn of Alie’s passing. She was such a brilliant spirit, loving and loyal friend to so many people, including my son, Brian Neumann. She will be so terribly missed. Thoughts and prayers to all the family, especially her dear parents. May you find some comfort in being surrounded by family and friends at this very sad time. Mindy Montgomery
Mel, Please accept my sincere condolances on your loss. My the Lord provide you and your wife grace through this difficult time. God bless you both. Sincerly, George Mettey
Mel and Carol Ann, May God grant you peace at this sorrowful time. Please take comfort in the hopeful thought that you and your daughter will someday be together with God forever in heaven, where there’s no sorrow, no pain, no tears, only eternal joy.
Mel, You have my deepest sympathy. My words are not adequate to express the sorrow I feel for your loss. I can not imagine what you and Carol Ann are going through. Please know I am here for you when ever. Your Friend Antoinette
Mel & Carol Ann…I can’t explain the shock I felt when I saw Alie’s sweet face in the Washington Post yesterday. All I kept thinking was,”I remember when she was born”! (We worked together in Crystal City). I am sending my deepest, heartfelt sympathy to you and your family during this difficult season. May God continue to bless and keep you. If there is anything I can do for your family, please let me know.
Dear Mel And Carol We are very sorry for your loss. We will keep Alie in our prayers. Tom & Marilyn
Mel and family….my thoughts and prayers are with each of you, other than that there are no words that even come close….Gary
We are all thinking of you today; our deepest condolences.
Paula and I are so very sorry to hear of your daughter’s passing. We understand only too well the anguish you experiencied as parents. Our own daughter needed meningioma surgeries at age 12 and 18. Please be aware our thoughts and prayers go with you.
Dearest Mel & Carol Ann There are no words to express our sincerest sympathies on the loss of Alie. Alie touched so many lives with her love of life and genuine smile. We will carry our PVO Angel in our hearts and souls forever, as will so many others.
Mel and family My deepest condolences to the entire family. My words cannot express my total emotions that I have at the moment.
Carol Ann & Mel, Derrick and I were so sorry to hear about the loss of your daughter. I know there are no words to ease your pain at this time. After the things I(we) heard on Saturday you both did a wonderful job raising an amazing person. A young lady that others looked up to and look to for support and guidance and did it all with a smile. I wish I would have known her before Saturday. Know that our love and prayers are with you both and if there is anything that either of you ever need please let us know.
Sorry for your loss.Thinking of you both.
We hold you and Alie in our hearts. The memories we all share of this wonderful girl will never fade…she is our PVO angel. Thinking of you and sending you love.
With kindest regards, I offer you, Mel and Carol Ann my sincere sympathy on the loss of your daughter Alie. She appears to have been an amazing person.
