Dr. Don, Tara and Zachary,

I am so so sorry for your loss of your beautiful daughter, Ali. I was totally floored. I remember running into you guys at On Orange some months back and thinking what a beautiful family. So sad I am. My thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless you all.

With deepest sympathy,

I have thought of all of you so often the past few days, but know that I can only imagine the pain and sadness you must feel. Please just know that my heart goes out to all of you and that I keep you in my prayers.

Sally Edwards

When I heard what had happened, I couldn’t believe it, didnt want to believe it. I knew Ali, I graduated with her. She was such a beautiful person, she would always make u smile n her laugh was hysterical. I’m so glad I had the pleasure of knowing Ali even though it was for a short period. Anybody who knew Ali came to love her. My prayers n thoughts are with you guys and just remember that one day shortly we will all see her again. Revelation 21:4 speaks when these things won’t have to happen anymore and what a blessing that will be when that time comes. I’m very truly sorry and saddened that this happened.
      With much love,

This beautiful young woman has been imprinted on my mind since I learned of her passing.  I know what it’s like to lose a best friend at the age of 19.  16 years later, it still hurts.  Please know that your daughter will live on because she has also been imprinted in the minds and hearts of all that loved her.  Sending you my sincerest sympathies and prayers.

Jeannie bought us flowers today and we were so appreciative for your sharing.  May you find comfort in knowing all of us are grieving your loss.

The Paul Mondock Family

During last week’s horrific events in our country, learning of Ali’s accident suddenly made everything so personal.  I was devastated to learn of her passing and am heartbroken for your family. 

My special memories of Ali are of a beautiful, sweet little blonde girl sitting in my second grade classroom.  She was an inquisitive, delightful child with a huge smile, many friends, and a desire to do well and please her teacher.  Her warm and loving personality shined through even then.  She was one of those students you wished you could teach for more than one year.  I will always remember her many talents and be thankful to have been a small part of her life.

May your own special memories help to sustain you through this painful time.  Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Family of Ali,

   There are just no words to express the grief of losing a child.  A beloved angel that was only yours for much too short of time on this earth.  Ali is in God’s hands now and her beautiful spirit will always remain with you.  Don, you’ve been my dentist and my mom’s for many years and it  was quite a shock to learn of such a tragedy has happened to your loving family.

My sincere sympathy and prayers for your family,

-Sean Reynolds and St. Joseph Health Ministries

The loss of your daughter has affected me very much.  We can not imagine the level of grief and sadness that you are experiencing, its any parents worst nightmare.  We did not know her, but it’s obvious she was very beautiful inside and out. The only peace you can have is knowing she is in heaven now and that she will never suffer. You gave her a wonderful life and she had nothing but joy and happiness in her short life here on Earth. To know this horrible accident took her from you, you are now suffering, but you must be comforted to know that she never did suffer.  She has reached our ultimate goal in this life, which is to reach eternal life with Christ in the Kingdom of Heaven.  Time is the only thing that will make this bearable.  We will continue to pray for your strength and peace.

With deepest sympathy,
Susie & Steve Kirchner

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you .Love the Search Family

Tara, Don, Zach and all of Ali’s family and friends. Bill and I were at the Celebration of Ali’s Life this morning. What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful young lady. We wish we would have known her as I feel a void that there was someone that spectacular and I never got to experience her joyous and infectious presence. You have so many people whose lives you all have touched which was evident by the remarkable turnout for the Celebration of Ali.

Tara and Don, We were at the ceremony with Sharon Schlager and Becky Shelby. Mike Schlager asked that I pass along his sympathy and let you know he has been praying for Ali and your family. We were all moved by the beautiful tribute that was put together in honor of Ali. Tara you are as beautiful as I remember and Don you are as handsome. Words spoken about Ali brought up incredible memories that I have of both of you. Tara, I always thought of you lighting up a room with your sparkling smile and your infectious laugh. Don, we all said that pictures of Ali being silly reminded us of you as well as your knack for embellishing stories. Her knack for drama that all characterized her as displaying is in my memories of the both of you.

I will reach out to you in the near future. I know you have to be so overwhelmed with all of the recent events. It is just important for me to tell you again that I have not had a day go by since Ali’s passing that you haven’t been in my head and heart. Same goes for my Billy D.

Please take care of yourselves and thank you for that reminder of how precious moments are with loved ones. I definitely left with the heartfelt urging to let petty thoughts and ill will behind. Treasure the ability to live and love life.

My love to you, Tina Dougherty

Tara and Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. May beautiful memories bring comfort and peace to you in the days ahead.

Dear Tara and family. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I lost a brother just about the age of Zachary. It is important to stick together as a family. You may  feel the urge to retreat into yourself. If you do, try to not let it last too long, unity is the only way to heal.

  I was the swim coach at LCC when Ali was little. She was such a little sweetheart. I couldn’t believe it when my daughter Savannah said she met you (Tara) at Penn Manors prom pictures last year. When I saw Ali at Willow Valley I couldn’t believe it was the little girl on swim team. She was so beautiful and Savannah said a real sweetheart. Please know my heart goes out to your entire family. God bless you.

My name is Karen Scheier. I am the nursing supervisor from Temple University Hospital. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and your family. I pray every night that God may give you all the strength to get through this. I remember Mrs. Fausnaught saying that night that Ali would be so sad if she knew we were crying. I never met her but know that she was wonderful human being who’s family loved her so much! May God bless you all.

Dear Dr. Fausnaught and family,

I wanted to convey my deepest sympathy for the loss of you daughter Ali. She was a beautiful girl with everything ahead of her. I have 2 children, one of which served 2 tours in Afghanistan so I was always concerned for his safety. I can’t imagine what you are going through. It is unbelievable how the world can change a million miles in an instant.

You are an excellent dentist and an extremely nice person. Please keep in mind that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

God Bless you and your family,

Tara, Don, family, and friends,

It is with shock and disbelief that I am posting this. Our hearts have been heavy since learning of Ali’s passing on Wednesday evening. Our immediate thoughts turned to you all and the tremendous loss you are mourning. We are grieving with you…we loved Ali too! Sari described her as genuine and I think that was a perfect word to describe her as it didn’t matter who you were, she was nice to you and accepting of you as her peer and friend. She truly was the sweetest girl I can think of from the class of 2012. Sari laughs when she thinks about the time that Ali and Victoria came to our house to watch our pets while we were away for a weekend. We needed them to let Sandy out a couple of times a day. We have an evil cat that hisses at people she doesn’t know well and the girls were petrified of her and brought a bat  along with them when they came here to let the dog out…just in case the cat got out of hand, haha. We hope you can find peace and comfort in those type of memories with time. Right now, it is probably hard to believe that anything will bring peace and comfort but in time, you will find ways to look back without so many tears. We love you all and cannot describe adequately the depth of pain we are feeling for you all and with you all. Tara, I would love to spend time with you if you would like. If you ever need a friend to just listen, I am here and desperately want to help in any way I can…please let me know. Our family is very, very sorry for you loss!

Love to all of you,
Lorie, George Longabaugh, Robby, Sari DeBusk (Brownstown)

Tara and family,

We are so sorry for your loss.. May the thoughts and prayers of friends offer you strength during the days that lie ahead.

To the family of ALI

Did not know Ali, but granddaughter Danielle Boyer, a classsmate of Ali’s, 2012 at CV and a cheerleader like Ali, feel your pain as Parents. I lost a son in December of 1975 at age 24, then this past Dec. 3, 3 days after her 58th birthday, my daugher Jeanie died suddenly.

NO Parent should be burying their child/ren. Knowing that she is with God and a beautiful Angel in Heaven. Your Faith will help you get thru this tragedy and loss, but do know many as myself are praying for your strength in the loss of Ali. MAY SHE REST IN PEACE IN THE ARMS OF THE LORD.

Dr. Fausnaught;

I well remember you speaking so highly of your girl, so my heart is so very heavy for you. A scripture that was meaningful to me when I experienced a sudden loss is found in Isaiah 43:2&3: "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior." Your family will remain in my thoughts and prayers.

My name is Michele Duffy McCormick and I am not sure if you remember me. I am Myleah Fisher’s cousin and was the little mascot cheerleader when you played varsity football. I currently live in DC, but am home in Danville for a visit and I just saw Ali’s obituary. I just cannot imagine the loss you and your family are feeling. I have an 18 year old son and a 13 year old daughter and to have something like that happen would just be horrifying. I just wanted to send my most sincere condolences and you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May time and the strength of family get you all through your loss.

My prayers for God to keep you in his loving arms and give you strength during this sorrowful time. Such a beautiful girl who seemed to give so much in the time she had. My sincerest condolences.

Don and Tara, Our hearts have been so heavy upon hearing the tragic news about your beautiful daughter Ali. We are so sad for you both, Zachary and the rest of your family. I read her obit and even though I didn’t know her I know from her description that she embodied the spirits of both of you. Anything I have to say just seems to sound so cliche. Just know that Bill and I have not been able to get you off our minds. I wish you didn’t have to suffer this loss or feel this unfathomable level of grief. Please take care of yourselves and may your faith help you get through the despair.

Love,

I am so very sorry for the loss of Ali. There are no words when someone looses a child or a grandchild. I too lost a child and I just wanted you to know that I am sending you love and strength for the days ahead.This quote gives me some comfort which is why I am sharing it.

“We cannot, after all, judge a biography by its length, by the number of pages in it; we must judge by the richness of the contents…Sometimes the ‘unfinisheds’ are among the most beautiful symphonies.” Viltor Frankl

May the music of your lovely Ali’s life continue to echo in the lives of all who love her as you remember her

I was deeply saddened to hear about the loss of your beautiful daughter. I only had the privilege to coach Ali for 2 years in middle school, but she was always such a delight. She had such a beautiful smile and was always a loving and caring young lady. Please know that your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Tara, Don & Zachary,
Words cannot express how deeply sorry I am for the loss of your sweet Ali…Although, I haven’t seen Ali since our LCC swim team days, I recognized her instantly … I will always remember her as the adorable "mini Tara" in her speedo swimsuit with the huge smile & twinkle in her eyes…
May God continuously shower you & your family with His comfort, strength & love…

Dr. Fausnaught and Family – My deepest sympathy in the passing of your daughter, Ali.  I can’t even imagine what you are going through but please know you are very much in my thoughts and prayers.

Your patient,

The Fausnaughts-
I didn’t personally know any of you, but my father use to do work for you many many years ago Dr. Fausnaught (he is a lab technician – RK Prosthetics), and I was a dentist assistant for Dr. Jeff Dever so I heard about this and your names sounded familiar. Also, I attend Temple University and graduated from Ephrata so I thought I must of known of Ali through mutual friends somewhere. Then, when I saw the picture of your family, you all looked very familiar. But I still couldn’t figure out where I knew you from. Then I remembered a few years back when I worked at Planet Fitness in Ephrata, I specifically remember your family coming in to work out. The reason why I specifically remembered your family was for a few different reasons. The main reason is because you came in together-which I found so, so cute. But it wasn’t just that- it was the energy you carried together as a family. I cannot stress to you enough how much I admired this.  I personally never had that experience in my family, and I remembered how witnessing that honestly touched my heart. I also remember thinking of how beautiful Mrs. Fausnaught and Ali are. Like I said, I didn’t personally know you, and probably only shared a few quick small-talk chats with you at the gym, but in those few brief encounters checking you in at the front desk, your family’s bond, energy, and love was felt and shined light all around. So much love and condolences for you and your family.

Donny & Family,

Can’t imagine what you’re going through, as I have two daughters of my own.  Our heart felt sympathies, thoughts, and prayers are with you.

Our hearts break for you. Ali was a beautiful, exuberant child. Always polite and poised, she made everyone around her smile. Please know that you are, and will be, in our thoughts and prayers, and if there is anything we can do for you now, or in the weeks, years to come- please don’t hesitate to call. There simply aren’t enough words to express how sorry we are, for you, and everyone, who was fortunate enough to know her.

God bless.

Dear Tara & Family,

I am so sorry for your loss. Tara, I can only imagine that Ali was as sweet and beautiful and as spirited as you were at her age and lit up the room as soon as you walked in to it. Please know that she is in a beautiful place now making her way to get her Angel Wings. You will feel her presence around you in a lifetime to come by a gentle touch on your shoulder, the smell of her perfume to a song on the radio that you will know is Ali saying "Hello, I’m right here." Please keep your faith and understand the urgency of our Lord needing Ali right away. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family & friends during this sad time and always.

Bless you all!
Robin (Hartman) Werner

Dear Tara and Family,

It has been so many years since I’ve seen you, but your tragic news made its way to me in North Carolina. I can’t imagine anything could provide comfort at this time, but please know that I’m thinking of you. Tara, I remember your grandmother Ruoff talking about Ali and their close relationship at a church brunch I attended with my mother years ago. Maybe you can find some comfort in imagining them together now. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
