Alyssa Boyd, 26, of Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, passed away tragically on May 22, 2025, as a result of an ATV accident. Her sudden passing has left her family, friends, and community heartbroken beyond words.
Born in 1998, Alyssa was a vibrant and determined young woman whose spirit could light up any room. She graduated from Central Columbia High School in 2020, where she left an indelible mark as a two-sport athlete. Alyssa was a standout on both the soccer and basketball teams. As the captain of the Varsity Soccer team, she wore jersey #3 and helped lead the squad to state and national rankings. On the basketball court, she played point guard wearing jersey #12, always known for her leadership and fierce competitiveness.
Alyssa was more than an athlete. She was a loyal friend, a loving daughter, and a bright soul with endless curiosity and kindness. She had a passion for teamwork and perseverance that extended far beyond the playing field. Her warmth, laughter, and courage will never be forgotten.
In recent years, Alyssa was known to be close to Julian Fleming, a football star from nearby Catawissa. Their bond, while private, was cherished by those who knew them.
Alyssa is survived by her parents, loving siblings, extended family, teammates, and countless friends who will carry her memory in their hearts forever.
A candlelight vigil will be held in her honor this week at Central Columbia High School’s soccer field, where she spent some of her happiest days. Funeral arrangements will be announced by the family in the coming days.
Alyssa’s life, though short, was lived with passion, purpose, and love. May she rest in eternal peace.
