To Alice's family,
I fondly remember Alice when I was working years ago in my first job at the Normandy House when Alice would come in and visit her mother. I always looked forward to seeing her and the rest of your loving family as you gathered around for a visit. She was such a pleasant woman and I have thought of her often. Please accept my sympathy to all of you at this difficult time.
