Alice was a wonderful person and a caring nurse. I first met her in the 1970's when I started working at Highland Park Hospital. She will be missed by all of those who were touched by her kindness.

Alice was a very loving neighbor and friend. I enjoyed visiting her and Molly on my daily dog walks. I'm glad to have kept in touch when she moved to Utah. I will miss her. I wish her family our deepest sympathy on their loss.
Love and prayers ,

Alice-you were always a pleasure to work with, and I'll never forget how much I enjoyed the Xmas parties at your house. We were lucky to have you as a nurse-and a friend-in OB. I'm sure you're now resting peacefully in heaven with Horace.

To Alices family:
I worked with Alice at Highland Park Hospital in the OB unit and she was the most excellent nurse there was. She ran circles around all us "younguns" and had wonderful stories to tell. An inspiration and role model. And was so proud of her family. What a loss- I've thought of her often. God bless you all.
