Alyson’s life was a testament to love and kindness. She married Kelly Scott on April 30, 2016, and their son, Cyrus, born in 2018, became the center of her world. Alyson cherished every moment spent with her family.

Alyson’s memory will be cherished by her in-laws, cousins, nephews, and many friends who became like family. She was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Don and Anne Witherspoon, and her paternal grandfather, Jimmie Stanley.

Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, inspiring her to love unconditionally and live with purpose. Alyson’s joyful spirit was evident in her many passions. She loved traveling and exploring new places, and was an enthusiastic Kansas City Chiefs fan, enjoying Sunday games with her family. As we bid farewell to Alyson, we celebrate a life filled with love. Her spirit will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her. Alyson’s earthly journey has concluded, but her legacy lives on in the hearts of those she loved and inspired.
