Allie lived life with energy, compassion, and joy. From a young age, she had a vibrant spirit that came alive through dance. Her passion led her to perform in countless parades across Minnesota and earned her a spot in the prestigious Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade during high school—a memory she cherished.
Allie enjoyed participating in softball, track, and gymnastics. But her heart found its true calling in working with children. She became a dedicated teacher, first in Chicago and most recently in Phoenix. Her specialty was mathematics, and she had a gift for connecting with students, particularly those with behavioral challenges. Allie saw their potential and gave them the attention and support they needed to thrive.
Outside the classroom, Allie found joy in country music, line dancing, and escaping into the world of Harry Potter. She will be deeply missed, but her love and light will continue to live on in the many lives she touched.
Allie is survived by her parents; Wynne and Theodore; her brothers; Peter and Jason, and sister in law Nicole.
