To my dearest, sweetest and wonderful friend, Alice,
You came to the Hershey Hospital, and stayed with John and Jared, when I had my aneurysm. You kept coming there, when I rested. At school, you baked RAISIN FILLED COOKIES for me, and they were SCRUMPTIOUS!! May God bless you with angels in Heaven now. We love you, always and forever,
Beth and John

I only knew Alice for a few short years. However, in that time I am proud to have called her a friend. We all miss her in Red Hats.

My sympathy to the family and friends of Alice Lockhart. Miss Lockhart was a teacher of mine at Dallas town school. More than that she was our intrepid speech and debate coach. Our nickname for her--lovingly of course--was Leadfoot as she had to drive us to many speech and debate competitions. What a dedicated educator.

Our love and prayer are with you, Alice

I had Miss Lockhart as a student at Dallastown Area High School and saw her working the polls throughout the years whenever I went to vote. She was a sweet lady and so active in the community; always volunteering her time to various causes including the Pennsylvania State Education Organization. Our thoughts are with her friends and family, including Miss Toscano, another former Dallastown teacher, at this difficult time.

Sincerest sympathy to Miss Lockhart's friends and family, including Miss Bernie Toscano, too. I was so very sorry to hear of your sad loss. I had the great privilege to have Miss Lockhart for a Mythology course at Dallastown Area High School many years ago. It was a fabulous course because she made it so. I think of Miss Lockhart often with wonderful memories of her from Dallastown.
May your own special memories help to comfort you at this difficult time.
