Born in Trenton, Alyssa was a lifelong area resident and graduate of Florence High School, Class of 2017. In her younger days, Alyssa was an avid soccer player and was a goalie for the Florence Flash Girls Soccer team. She could also be found horseback riding at Arram Dawn Farms, which she absolutely loved over the years or at Graffiti Peir where she loved to skateboard the day away. She was always an extremely creative person who loved freelance art and drawing which brought her relaxation and comfort.
Alyssa was a born a lover of music and you could often find her composing her own songs on her piano or listening to any genre imaginable as her tastes knew no limits! She loved to drive to the Jersey Shore, especially Ocean City and Asbury Park, in her beloved Jag convertible with the top down and the sun on her face. She enjoyed searching for special crystals, which brought her peace, in the local shoppes and having a fabulous breakfast meal made for a great day! Breakfast was Alyssa's favorite meal and she loved sharing it with all at any time or cooking for those she loved. She had a passion for adventure and was a kind hearted, beautiful soul. She adored both children and animals, especially her cat, Cletus. She was loved deeply and will be missed beyond measure.
