Alice, you were always such a character to everyone in the family – a standout in many ways. For someone who didn’t have a car, you did manage to see a lot of the US, via bus, train, or car. (Remember the Easter chicks getting out on the bus to Vermont?!) We enjoyed having you visit us in Montana, and then later in Maryland. You pioneered in the areas of recycling, exercising, and conservation – we just didn’t know it at the time. We always knew your heart belonged to Daddy, and now you are with him. I know to you your greatest achievements were being a good daughter, a diligent worker, and a woman of great faith. I hope they have talking in heaven, or else it won’t be for you. God bless you and keep you, and thanks for giving us your 92 years on Earth

Auntie Alice was such a warm and caring woman. She always had a new adventure planned for all us kids whenever we were in town. And who could ever forget the many trips she made to the beach with all of us in tow. There are so many wonderful memories that I will always cherish. God Bless.

Alice was such a giving person who would gladly open her home & her heart to those she loved. I have many special memories of trips & tours she would take me and my brother & sisters on when we were young. We love you & miss you Alice. May you rest in peace.
