Alice Richeson Obituary

RICHESON, Alice H.
(Age 97)

Passed from this life on the morning of April 23, 2011 after a gradual decline in health. She was born November 21, 1913 in Medicine Lake, MT to Jacob and Signe Jacobsen. She was surrounded and supported by loving family and excellent caregivers. She lived most of her life in Spokane and had a variety of jobs and responsibilities during her lifetime. Alice treasured her family and friends and was showered with love and devotion in return. We will miss her and are saddened by our loss, but are comforted knowing she is in the arms of loved ones who have preceded her to heaven. She touched our lives in a special nurturing way that will remain in our hearts forever. We love you, may you rest peacefully. Alice is survived by her daughter Jean Fowler of Spokane; many beloved nieces and nephews; grandchildren; great and great-great-grand- children. She was preceded in death by her son Mark Richeson, her brothers, sister, parents, many friends and relatives. Visitation will be Thursday, May 5, 2011 8-5PM and Friday 8-12 Noon at Heritage followed by a Funeral Service at 1:30PM Friday, May 6th at Sunset Chapel, Fairmount Memorial Park, 5200 W. Wellesley.
