I was very sad, shocked & surprised to read her obituary. My sincere sympathies to her family. I had the privilege of cutting Allanna's hair a few times in her home over the past couple years. Such a sweet, dear lady. I felt she suffered physically & emotionally because of her condition. Soon Alana you will be resurrected to a new eternal life on Paradise Earth where there will be no pain, sickness, suffering, tears or death any more. Rev. 21:3-5, Psalms 37:10, 11, John 5:28. Wish I could've been there at the hospital for you. Affectionately, Madlene💔❤️ - Posted by: Madlene Roulette (Personal Mobile hairstylist ) on: Jan 22, 2019

I met Allanna when I moved into the neighbourhood in Grade Five. Together with Deb Molund Chan we spent many hours together before I moved to Edmonton in Grade 11. We spent many sleepovers at her house and had many adventures together. Allanna led the way for lots of things, including talking me into getting my ears pierced. Keep the good memories close to help you through the grief. - Posted by: Brenda Medhurst Allbright (School friend) on: Jan 20, 2019
