    With deepest sympathy to Alison’s family – sisters Lorraine, Jenny, Robyn and their families – from the Crawford family. You are in our thoughts.

  • Lynette RAWSON says:

    My heartfelt sympathy goes to Lorraine, Jenny and Robyn and their families, on this sad passing of their special sister, Alison. I was very pleased I could attend her farewell yesterday with my brother Graeme and his wife Elaine, to hear her story and chat with others of our memories of her. A life well lived with travel and dedication to her teaching.
    Alison and I are related, 2nd cousins, so have known each other for a long time, but especially since high school. Always smiling and stood out in the crowd. So glad she attended one of our Traralgon High School Class of ’66 lunches a few years ago. Many ex students have recorded their condolences on our site.
    Again, my thoughts go to Alison’s family and many friends. Health issues dealt with over the years until recently. Alison will be missed by many.

  • Julie Harding (Robinson) says:

    I first met Alison when I moved to Traralgon as an 8 year old. We were friends all through school days but lost touch as we moved into adulthood. I remember her as kind, clever, vivacious and a friend to many. It’s such sad news to hear of Al’s passing – my condolences to all her friends, family and those who were lucky enough to know her. The photo story was a wonderful tribute to a life well lived and well loved. RIP Alison
