I am very sorry for your loss. Alice was my mama's next door neighbor at Sterling House. The first day Alice moved in, mama went up and ask Alice if she would be her friend. They were and every time I would be there I aways stuck my head in Alice's room and blew her a kiss. She also would give me reports on mama..I will miss Alice and I send comfort to the family
