I'm lost for words ...

My sincere condolences and much strength to get through these hard times. It's sad that Ally never got to enjoy KBA despite all the efforts she put in the car.

Simon, I just saw the title of your post when I logged on & I froze -I can't believe this has happened. Deepest sympathies.

We never met but having had a little email correspondence with Ally over KBA's repairs, & having common interest in greyhound rescue charity work, I had kind of felt I knew her. Her passing is a tragedy.

I met Ally's auntie & uncle earlier in the summer (they collected a part for KBA from me) & they talked so much of her. Perhaps you would be kind enough to pass my sympathies onto them as well.

Simon, I'm totally shocked. I met Ally and yourself a couple of times at TR meetings and her passion and love for all things wedge shaped was unrivalled. So sorry to hear the news. I will miss her posts on this place as they were always funny and full of advice.

My sympathy to you and all of Allys family.

When I readed yesterday the message, I could not belief it, Ally was just two days ago on the forum! What can life be cruel.

I wish you and family many strength in this dark period.

Simon, my condolences to you and both families. I am not a 'regular' contributor on the forum, but I am a 'regular reader'. When reading of the news I thought of Ally as part of a global family connected by a common interest rather than genetics. I'm sure she has affected many across the world. Thanks for informing us here. I've been thinking of you since the news.

Lost for words

i remeber talking to Ally this year at Stoneliegh and her being interviewd at the Register National last year, she was so full of life and loved the Tr. what a unbelievable loss, if there is anything i or we can do please do not hesitate to ask.

i for one would like to know any funeral arrangment and whether we can show a mark of respect for such a lovely Girl in any way.


i'm so sorry, truly heart breaking news
