Not sure what to say?

One of my favorite distant relatives for sure. She would always jump out of her chair at the polling place in Forreston to give me a hug and a kiss while telling all the girls I was one of her favorite nephews. She will be sorely missed - RIP.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

I have fond memories of your mom I will never forget.

Alice was a kind and generous person. I was a childhood guest at the family farm outside Forreston often. Many a wonderful memory of Alice and her family. Alice was once voted "The most beautiful Mom" in our grade school class. She was beautiful on the inside and the outside.

Alice was a kind and generous person. I was a pal of her daughter Kris. I spent many a day on the dairy farm outside Forreston. We had many adventures on that farm! I remember collecting duck eggs. Sitting at the breakfast table with the whole family. And of course helping milk the cows. Alice was once voted "The most beautiful Mom" in our grade school class.

I don't know what to say about Alice except that she was one of the kindest and most thoughtful people that I have ever met. She was a saint and touched so many lives. We need more of her in the world.
