Alison May Reid

We were so sorry to hear about Alison's passing. She was such a nice neighbour, always willing to reach out to those in need. When there was an accident on our street, she was the first one there comforting and assisting. She also helped us when our car broke down by providing a ride to the grocery store. We will miss her and Poppy too!

My sincere condolences to Anne, Andrew, and the rest of the Reid family.

So sad to hear of Alison's passing. My Husband Gerard and I met Alison when she purchased our home, 180 Dromore Crescent, Hamilton. She was so warm, caring, personable, quick witted and a pleasure to be around. Thinking and praying for you and your family during this very difficult time. Sincere condolences on your loss. Anne and Gerard Cox.

Dear Family of Alison, Alison worked for my company, Functional Rehab as an OT on and off over the years. I hadn't heard from Alison in a while, so I was planning on calling her on her birthday in May. This is now a life lesson that one shouldn't postpone calling people, When you think about them, you should just call them. Alison had the wonderful trait of loving her dogs and it was beautiful to listen to her talk about them. I sent a donation to Hope Place Centre. Although it won't take away from the heartbreak you must be feeling, I hope it memorializes her in small way. Ann Cleary

It didn’t matter how long or short it had been but we could always talk for at least an hour. We spoke of our love of dogs, shopping, McDonald’s, anything that popped into our head. Alison, I will miss our talks but I will miss your spirit more. My thoughts to your family and friends at this unbelievably hard time. She will be terribly missed. Katie

I am so sorry to hear of Alison’s passing. I have so many wonderful memories of her from the good ol’ days - soccer teams and birthday parties, part time jobs and just the general hanging out together that teenagers do. She had a big beautiful smile and a big heart to go with it- I was lucky to have had her in my life and will remember her fondly. My deepest condolences to Anne, Andrew and everyone who loved her.

I am so saddened to hear of Alison's passing. She was always a friendly and warm person with a beautiful smile. I was fortunate to meet her and to get to know her during our high school years. Then our paths crossed regularly on the McMaster U campus where we had some common classes. We've remained connected since and exchanged messages over the years since. My deepest condolences to her family, friends & to her fur babies. She will be greatly missed.

I am so sad to hear the news. I always admired Allison as a kid. I thought she was so beautiful. My cousin in hair shows!!! So proud of her. The last time I connected with Allison we talked about how we would retire in Advocate together. She was always checking in. I’ve learned from her to do this more often with the people who are important to me. Lots of hugs to Auntie Anne and family during this difficult time. xoxo.

Anne, Andrew and family – so sad to hear of your beautiful Alison's passing. I have such fond memories of her from the old neighbourhood. My sincere condolences to all.

Some friendships are for a season but memories last a lifetime. Deeply saddened to hear of her passing. Anne she loved you so much you were her pillar, her strength. Praying for you at this very difficult time. In peace at last. XXXX

I remember Alison with a beaming smile, and big laugh. Our paths did not cross for long, but in that time she was so good to me as an OT a couple of years behind her. I am grateful I had the opportunity to meet her and my thoughts are with all of those who are missing her now.

Dear Anne, my heart is heavy as I send my sympathy to you and all that loved your Alison. I am so sorry for your loss and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. May your happy memories comfort you all.

We are so saddened by Alison’s passing. She left us too soon, far too young, passed on from so many people who loved her. She will stay with us because we remember her. Sending our love to Auntie Auntie, Andrew, Sarah, Austin, Adelyn, and all friends and family who are grieving.

So sorry Anne and family Losing a child is so very hard Thinking of you Hugs

I was so saddened to learn of Alison’s passing. It seems like just yesterday that she bounded into our OT class at McMaster full of vim and vigour and a bright and cheery face. Though distance and years separated us, we checked in with one another over the last two decades. My deepest sympathies to her family and friends,both two and four-legged. Xo

I am so sorry to hear of Alison’s passing. I enjoyed getting to know her during our time at McMaster and we exchanged many phone calls over the years since to discuss everything from OT to dogs. I loved chatting with her, we could talk for hours. We didn’t do it often enough but I will miss them. I will remember her fondly.

Sending so much love to your family. Alison brought a bright and joyous light to any room she entered. I am so thankful to have had the privilege of experiencing her friendship and kind soul. She is very missed.

I am very saddened to hear of the loss of our friend, Alison. She was such a bright light and open heart during our two years at McMaster OT. I learned so much from her in PBT, personally and professionally. She took the time to keep in touch, even with the pandemic weighing down on us all. I will miss her spirit, knowing Her Spirit is always a part of us. XoX Richard
