Hard to believe you've been gone 13 years. It's been a long time & a longer time missing you. I can't begin to tell you how many times over the years, I think of you, dream of you & remember old times. See you soon my friend.

Alice D ------

The first impression when I first met Alice left a memory of a nice young girl with beautiful legs. She was a friendly person with a great personality. She held the job of Executive Secretary and did her job exceptionally well. Whatever the bosses needed done Alice was there to satisfy them. She answered phone calls as she typed. She handled all the commutations for the sales department. Whenever the home office called she would set up all the arrangements for local meetings. She arranged hotel accommodations and dinners for all who came from Seattle- our home office.

As Executive Secretary she was everyones girl Friday- doing everything that made the office run smoothly. Alice ordered supplies for all departments, including supplies for the Greek Orthodox Church as a personal favor to me.

When I retired from Airborne, Alice arranged a beautiful retirement dinner for me. As usual she made my retirement dinner a fabulous affair, and I have to thank her for that. I can continue to praise Alice for what she did for her company Airborne and her piers but that first impression still remains with me.

May her memory be eternal,

Alice,
I miss you so very much that my heart seems to ache all the time. It doesn't seem real to me that you're gone. You will always have a special place in my heart. I love you & miss you more with each day.
Until we meet again, my friend & pick up where we left off, as planned.

Dear Barbara, Daniel.

Alice was a great friend. Her loyalty, sensitivity, and honesty were what made her special. the fact that she was also very smart, made her so invaluable to me in the years we worked together. daniel, your mother was a very special lady, and everyone whose life she touched will miss her.

Dear Daniel,
When I began my career at Airborne in 1973 your mother took me under her wing and helped me. Often she would type letters for me to customers even tough she was working for the area VP at the time. When I was preparing for my wedding in 1975 she typed up all the prayers for the Mass so that everyone could follow along and then she drew all these beautiful pictures around the border of each page. It was that kind of extra touch she put into everything. In my career of over 3 decades I often had to go to your mom for help with a customer issue. She was always ready to help and always professional in her follow up. A class act. But I am confident that she is enjoying her reward now in heaven with the Lord. You now have your own personal angel up there to intercede for you.

Kind, considerate Alice. That's the way I'll always remember her. She gave me my first real job as a secretary @ Airbore and was she ever hard!! But I knew there was a method to her madness and that cuddly bear underneath came out always at the appropriate time. I want to and WILL always remember the good times with Alice because they FAR outweigh they rest. Alice if I spelled anything wrong I know I'll be hearing from you. I love you.

Dear Daniel, Barbara, Fred, Jennnifer & Brad, I am so sorry for your loss. Alice took me under her wing when I was her lead agent & I worked with her for many years. She was good to me and was a very generous & caring person. she taught me a lot & bestowed words of wisdom whenver she could. One thing I can remember her saying was "don't let anyone steal your joy babe". I still think of that whenever I feel down. Alice spoke often about you all & i know how much she loved you. her family was her pride,joy & life. She will be sorely missed. May God grant you peace & comfort you with beautiful memories.

Dear Danny & Family,
I know Alice since my sister Esther became friends with her at Airborne years ago. I was the tag along little sister who then became friends with Alice too. It was easy, for she was the most giving, gentle, and loving person. She always had cats, and always wanted a child. That she got, Danny. All she ever wanted for you was to be happy inside yourself, and have a happy life. Do that for her, please. We all will be here for you to help you with whatever you may need.
Love TJ aka Jacquie Cohn (Esther's sister) and Gary, and Monique.

Daniel,
Your mother was a very special person, a truly 'classy lady'. She became my friend when I was at AFC/JFK in 1972/73; a friendship I have valued all of these years. I know how much she loved you and that you were the happiness in her life. Your mother was a great person and she will be deeply missed.
