Alyssa \u201cSis\u201d Nicole Armour<\/p>\n

On the afternoon of May 5, 2020, the beautiful daughter of Wally \u201cJR\u201d and Fonda, Alyssa \u201cSis\u201d Nicole Armour, surrounded by family at her home, went skiing into Heaven after fighting a courageous battle with ovarian cancer since April 2018. Born on May 12, 1989 in Canton, Ohio to Wally \u201cJR\u201d and Fonda (Sharpnack) Armour, she lived in Alliance most of her life. She enjoyed spending the last seven years living in Aspen and Snowmass, Colorado. Alyssa was a member of Union Avenue United Methodist Church where she was baptized and confirmed. A 2007 graduate of St. Thomas Aquinas High School, she also attended Akron University and The Ohio State University. She was employed at Pine Creek Cook House and Brunelleschi\u2019s in Aspen, Colorado. Alyssa was an avid skier, enjoyed yoga, hiking, bicycling, hula hooping and most of all playing with her Morkie, \u201cLeo\u201d. Survivors include her parents Wally \u201cJR\u201d and Fonda L. Armour of Alliance, OH; her brother, Wally B. Armour; her sister, Abbey Armour; grandparents, Wally A. (Mary Lee) Armour; and several aunts, uncles and cousins. Preceding her in death were her grandparents, Morris and Carolyn Mercer. A public Procession of Love for Alyssa\u2019s final journey will begin at Sharer-Stirling-Skivolocke Funeral Home, on Monday, May 11, 2020 at 4:30 pm. A special thank you from Alyssa\u2019s family to the Calaway-Young Cancer Center in Glenwood Springs, Colorado and to Cleveland Clinic for their care.
