Jim and family:

I was truly sad to hear about Alice today. She was one of the most wonderful people that I have "ever" had the opportunity to be blessed to know. She truly had a wonderful and giving heart and spirit! She was ALWAYS willing to help anyone in need.

Alice will always have a special place in my heart and in my life because she was my mentor and friend. Early in my career when we worked together, she was always encouraging me to do my best and to be the best. She encouraged me to complete my education and to seek every opportunity for improvement. Although we had a wonderful relationship, I also "know" that she established these same relationships with so many people. Everyone that knew her, loved her! She was the epitome of grace and graciousness and always gave the love that God would have us all to show! She was no respecter of persons - she simply gave of her heart!

My prayers are with you Jim and your family. I know that she is in God's loving arms!
