The Alpha Everyone Knew
Alpha was kind and inquisitive. She enjoyed being around people. Old friends and new friends. Her illness was quite short and took us all by surprise. Her friend Janet was with her on the day of her passing and kept in close contact with her friends. Her sudden passing though sad for us all, was a blessing for her. She wanted no services but asked to be cremated and her ashes scattered at a place of her choosing. Her wishes are being fulfilled.
