Ally's House is named after Allison Webb, the daughter of Toby Keith's friend and original bandmate Scott Webb. Allison, also known as Ally, was a happy toddler with a sunny disposition. Just before her 2nd birthday, Ally developed a knot on the side of her belly. Her mother took her to the doctor, who ordered an ultrasound. By the end of the day, the family was shocked to learn Allison had large tumors on both kidneys. Ally underwent three major surgeries, radiation and three different kinds of chemotherapy. She received care at Children’s Hospital in Oklahoma City and at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis. Unfortunately, Ally lost her battle with cancer on August 6, 2003, in her mother’s arms, a month shy of her 3rd birthday. Allison’s favorite place was home. After a long hospital stay, she was always thrilled to get back home. Each time she returned, she would happily say, “We’re at Ally’s house!” For this reason, the name “Ally’s House” has special significance for Allison’s family and friends. It symbolizes a safe place – a place of welcome, where comfort and love help ease the burden.
