Ally was vibrant, caring and ready to explore the world via the US Navy after high school. Her life’s ambition was to be out helping others any way should could and she had a heart worthy of a Queen. Music, dancing and exploring the triumphs and tribulations of being a teen were a common routine for her. At 18, she began exploring herself and what relationships are all about as most do at this age. She became involved in a relationship that at the start, seemed meant to be and her world was alive. However, this new found love was cut short when her life came to an end at the hands of her partner. Another statistic of the horrors surrounding teen dating violence in conjunction with the affects of domestic violence. We vowed to carry on her spirit and continue the journey via the Ally Remembered Foundation. Finding a way to honor her and raise awareness over the affects of domestic violence so that others will be empowered to live domestic violence free lives has become our priority. Ally’s stepfather Andy Starrett has championed this mission. Utilizing his passion for sharing Ally’s story so it might benefit others and his passion for the sport of paintball, the foundation was born. The ARF’s primary goals are to reach affected youth and, using the sport as a catalyst, offer unique support programs that encompass keeping survivors focused on a positive future.
