Condolences
My heart is broken at this news as I just was told my best friend from kindergaten was killed. I loved Alita she was the sweetest, kindest, most wonderful friend a person could ever have known. Iam so grateful to have known her and her family and the wonderful summers we spent(being next door neighboors from 1972-1978). I will forever miss her and be thankful for all the warmth of her friendship and kindness. To her wonderful family my heart aches with you and know that you and Alita will always have a place in my heart. With Love Always, Elizabeth Stewart Albright
I can't even begin to imagine the sense of loss your family must be feeling. You're in my prayers. God Bless

Dear Jim, Eric & Daniel and Family,
Our family is saddened over the news of your great loss. You continue to be in our thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time. May the path of comfort find you all and reflections of the cherished memories you share of your wife, mother and friend. Only for a little while longer.........
Hal, Opal and family, I am so very saddened over your loss. My thoughts are with all of you.
Alita worked in my classroom last year. She was a wonderfully sweet and kind person. She always had a smile and kind words to share with everyone. She was a wonderful role model for the students and staff. She was extremely patient and worked so well with all of the students. She will be deeply missed by all. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Lori Mulacek
Our deepest sympathy goes out to Alita's family. May god find a way to strengthen her family through this difficult time.
Miss Alita will be greatly missed by the whole Girard School family. She had a quiet and special way with all her students. I was fortunate to work with her on a daily basis and will miss her smile, her quiet way and her sense of humor.
May you find comfort in your special memories at this difficult time.
My deepest sympathies go out to the family of Miss Alita! What a wonderful woman she was!! Miss Alita was so patient and kind to all students. So many kids were touched by her kind ways. She taught me so much just by her example. I will miss her smile and positive attitude. She will not be forgotten!!
Miss Alita worked with my son, Braden, for 2 school years. She was an amazing person and my son loved her very much. She helped to make him the independant 3rd grader he is today and for that I am forever grateful! My deepest sympathy goes out to her family. May you somehow find peace in all this. RIP Alita I will never forget you!
Alita worked in my classroom for her first year in Girard School District. She had a special gift with children that was incredible to watch. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to work closely with "Miss Alita". We shared laughter, tears, stories of our families and the love that we have for the children of Girard. I enjoyed hearing stories about her boys. She was so proud to be their mother! May time heal your broken hearts. My thoughts are with all of you. She will be missed greatly.
My deepest sympathies to Alita's family during this difficult time. Alita was a beautiful person and the children she helped daily will miss her very much. Girard school has lost a very dear friend who had so much patience for our children. I pray that your memories of Alita will give you comfort during this time.
My deepest sympathy to Miss Alita's family. Please know she touched many, many hearts, daily.
Miss Alita will be missed by the Girard staff and the students of Girard. She touched so many of our lives with her smile and soft voice. She had a gift of knowing what to do for the kids. We were blessed to have her in our lives. Thank you for sharing her with us.
Miss Alita was such a wonderful person. I will miss her wonderful smile, her positive attitude about life and especially her great sense of humor. She will be greatly missed by all those who knew her, but especially by all of you who she loved so much.
With my deepest sympathy, Connie Schroeder
