Alana was the daughter of Bob and Carmen Pack. She and his brother Troy were hit and killed by a car while they were riding their bikes home from getting ice cream with their mother. The driver fled the scene, but was later caught and charged with their murders. It is believed she was under the influence of drugs when she hit Troy and Alana.

Soccer, baseball, swimming, tennis, roller-blading — "super-athletic" Alana loved sports and often competed with her older brother and his friends. Her Mustang League soccer coach, Trevor, and her SRVGAL softball coach, Attila, called her "the quiet leader." Danville neighbors nicknamed Alana "brown squirrel" as she scurried around the neighborhood, playing sports and games.

Alana's drive to excel carried over to her school work, and she was considered a top student in her second grade class at Sycamore Valley Elementary School. Always determined and focused, she began reading and writing at an early age. Though her teachers considered Alana "serious," to her close friends and family she was outgoing and funny, tough and spunky.

Knowing how much Alana loved BBQ potato chips and candy, her brother Troy would often bribe her to do favors for him by offering her treats. And her uncle loved to make her smores, her favorite treat of all. Alana frequently visited her grandparents, who loved to have her over to swim in their pool and to "spoil" her.

The little girl who grew up hooked on pacifiers — sometimes needing six or seven to fall asleep — lost her first front tooth on a ride at Disney World. The Santa Cruz Boardwalk — with its abundant rides and treats — became one of her favorite weekend trips. Alana was also a bit of a clothes horse and loved to dress in the latest trends, which made her feel like a "big girl."

Alana was buried wearing her soccer uniform.
