I mentored with her in Rome for a couple of years and knew her through the United Way. She was a wonderful person who lit up the room with her smile. Alice will be sorely missed!

Alice was the nicest and most kind person at Strough JHS and RFA, she was always a very good friend to me. We sat next to each other on the bus ride to school. It's said that I only got to see her two times in the past 49 years. But I will still miss her smile. Ed Jones, RFA 1970
