Weeping loved ones paid emotional tribute Sunday to a Long Island teacher and mom of four who died when she lost control of her car and drove it into the family’s backyard swimming pool.
The sister of tragic 40-year-old Allison Rahmani described her as “the life of the party,” and an educator who taught “because she loved to” during the funeral at Boulevard-Riverside Chapels in Hewlett, Nassau County.
“Where somebody else saw a difficult child, Ali saw potential,” she said through tears.
Rahmani’s husband, Matthew Rahmani, described his wife as someone who “poured her heart and soul into her community.”
The mom of four died on Friday after losing control of her SUV and plunging into the backyard pool at her Hewlett home.
