Alice and Joe were wonderful loving friends and Godparents..Alice wil be fondly remembered Darlene Barnett

Dear Joe, Michael, Cindy, and Joey,
My heartfelt condolences go out to all of you as I learn of Alice's passing. I have many great memories growing up on Wilshire Terrace of Alice always opening up the door for me and letting me in to chat while I waited for Joey to get home to play ball. She was a gracious, thoughtful, and wonderful lady who will truly be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Mrs Bante was more than a friend's mother to me - more like a combination of gracious hostess, compassionate woman, and comfort food. When Mike and I started out to work each morning for 3 years during High School, and again when we returned sweaty and grimy, often full of paint and sawdust, at the end of each St Louls hot Summer day, she would invite us to enjoy her latest concoction which, if refused, was replaced with a sandwich or other repast as appealed to us.

Dear Coach Joe; Your mother must have been a wonderful woman - because she has a wonderful son in you. The proof is in the pudding! So sorry for your loss. We are all praying for you. Michael Clark and Family (Webster Groves Tigers)

Letter to Joe(son):

Dear Joe, Mary, Henry, Owen and Daisy,



I am very sorry but also happy for your parents and entire family on the passing of your mom. I cannot imagine what you all had to go through and know from other friends who have had similar situations how hard it can be. I am sure your mom is at peace and I am sure she had a free pass to Heaven. Although I never met your mom, I am sure she was a wonderful woman just from knowing the fine people that both you...

Her friend Flo is welcoming her with open arms.

Note to Sarah:

Sarah, so sad to hear about your grandmother's passing. She was a beautiful and gracious woman.

Note written to Sarah:

I'm so sorry for your loss, Sarah. Your granny was a wonderful lady...so funny and nice and great to talk to. I'll never forget the wonderful times I had with her and your whole family at Pere Marquette. She always had something sweet to say to me. I remember she told me that I had a "lovely profile". That made me so happy - it's not a compliment one gets often! I'll always remember her kindness and happy spirit. I loved every moment.
