"A
spunky five-year-old, she had dimples when she laughed and soft doe
like eyes that sparkled below a ragged fringe of coffee-colored hair.
She loved to fly kites, to dance to Little Richard songs, and to watch
The Little Mermaid on television. Alie giggled her way into the hearts
of her neighbors and had just shared a pizza with one of them when she
disappeared."
