Dear Hamilton family,
Although I never knew "Ali", I had the pleasure of her waiting on me during some of my visits to Stoneforge Restaurant. She was always very friendly, outgoing and had a smile on her face. When I heard what happened I saddened me deeply and I felt compelled to offer you my condolences. Although I can't begin to imagine the grief you all feel please know she touched many lives and her memory will always live on thru those she touched. A new angel got their wings and is watching over your family.

Respectfully,
Craig H.
