My condolences to the family. I have heard about Aunt Alyce for years from my sister-in-law Vicky Munroe. I know she loves her aunt and will miss her. Alyce's mother Pearl was my Sunday school teacher at the Court St. Baptist Church when I was Young. God bless all.

Col. Benn,
Maam, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army-especially during WW II. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
