I am sorry to hear of Alice’s passing and only found about about Abe’s passing a couple of years ago. My Condolences to the Van Stefum family. I met Alice several times since I was Abe’s helper at Quality Air for about 6-7 months in 1986-87. It was after her breast cancer. She just Love Life and was a very happy soul. You could tell she was the Love of Abe’s life and he adored her tremendously. Would tell me stories of them and some of their adventures. Abe was the same age as my Dad. He love to give advice on life! Once again, my most sincerest Condolences!
