Dear Dan, dear Emily,
having met Alison many many years ago - for sure at some constellation event. I
still remember her being full of live, keen intellect and a fine sense of
humour! Knowing she now „walked over the rainbow“ I feel joy for her having
gracefully done her piece here on earth. For you Dan as her brother and Emily
for having known her, I wish both of you all the best to cope with the loss and
imagine you have since long already found in your work the best tools to do.
With warmth,
Sneh

I am very sorry to hear this news Dan
I had no idea Alsion was sick.
As well as being a powerful positive force within the constellation world,
for many years, Allison and her husband Ed were both very active
contributors to this forum.
I will sorely miss Alison's presence and wish you Dan and other close loved
ones of Allison all the best as you each navigate your way through your grief
in your own ways.
Lots of love

Hello All –
I am sad to share the news that my sister, Alison Rose Ley, died on December
31, 2022 in our family home in Aquinnah on Martha’s Vineyard. Her husband,
Ed, her caregiver, Agnes Dankwah, and my partner Emily and I were by her
bedside. Alison was a journalist and activist who participated in a Family
Constellations training organized by Bert Hellinger, Harald Hohnen, and Suzi
Tucker in New York in 2001.
Alison was imbued with a sense of social justice even as a young girl. During
her undergraduate years at Sarah Lawrence College, she studied with the poet
and writer Grace Paley and the mythologist Joseph Campbell. For many years,
she wrote about progressive politics for Truthout, AlterNet, Common Dreams,
and other publications. Her podcast, Connect the Dots, in which she
interviewed thought leaders, ran for many years on the Progressive Radio
Network. She was a regular contributor to ConstellationTalk.
She leaves a body of work that has touched and inspired many. “I am
thankful,” she once wrote, ”for you, my friends, people who care, who face
what is tough to see, and who do the work involved in seeing it—from grieving
to acting to make it better, and I am grateful to the living earth and loving
communities that support us all.”
This forum and the many contributors and facilitators she befriended were an
important part of her life.
Warmly,
Dan
