Alyson Cathcart was a radiant soul whose light touched every corner of the world she graced. Born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, Alyson was known for her infectious smile that could light up an entire room and her ability to form true, heartfelt connections with everyone she met.

Her family lovingly remembers her as their sunshine, their beautiful baby girl, and their only child. “She was my sunshine,” her mother shares, reflecting on the warmth and love Alyson brought into their lives.

Alyson's life was tragically cut short due to the betrayal of a trusted friend who gave her fentanyl, deceitfully claiming it was cocaine. Her family hopes to honor her memory by shedding light on the devastating consequences of the drug epidemic and the importance of trust and honesty.

Though she left this world too soon, Alyson’s legacy of love, light, and connection will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. She will always be remembered as a beautiful, vibrant spirit who brought sunshine into the lives of everyone she encountered.

Rest in peace, sweet Alyson. 💜🌻
