Alison was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a cherished daughter, sister, and friend. She will be remembered for her strength, kindness, and the deep love she shared with those closest to her. Her greatest joy in life was her family, and she leaves behind a legacy of love that will continue through those who knew and loved her.

She is also survived by her mother and stepfather, Valerie and Edward Cowdrey; her father and stepmother, Donald and Linda Nichols; her loyal and treasured brother, Seth Nichols; her parents-in-law, Dorse, Sr. and Karen Taylor; and many extended family members and dear friends who will forever treasure her memory.

Alison's courage, compassion, and unwavering love touched countless lives. Though her time here was far too short, the memories she created and the love she gave will remain in the hearts of all who knew her.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the physicians, nurses, caregivers, and friends whose kindness and support brought comfort throughout Alison's illness.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date, with details to be shared by the family.
