Not sure what to say?

Elaine, I am so sad to hear about your mother. She was such a fun lady, I just loved being at your house. I have many fond memories of her. I just expected her to always be around. Know that we are thinking of you and your family at this time.

Dear Judge Braithwaite, Arlene and Family,

What a brilliant, funny, kind and fascinating person...and the best neighbor ever. I never spoke to her that she didn't make me laugh and her smile was legendary. She lived a great life and those of us who were fortunate to know her are richer and wiser. Scott, Alice and Carly Burns.

On behalf of the Virgil and Frances James family, we extend our sincere condolences to the Braithwaite family on the loss of dear Alice. Royden and Alice were great friends of my parents, Virgil and Frances, and became more like family while at Cornell University. Virgil passed away in 1985 and Frances in 1993; they continued a friendship with the Braithwaite family until the end of their lives. While I was not yet born during those years in Ithaca, NY, I've heard the many stories and fond...

Doug and Karl, I extend my sympathy at the loss of your mother. I remember when you moved to Cedar City. I alway considered your parents as pillars in the community and real examples of all that was good and worthwhile in life. I remember with gladness playing football for the Redmen with you. I know your faith will sustain you and you will find comfort knowing she is once again with her beloved companion. Dr. E. Reed Heywood, West Virginia

It was always exciting when we went to Cedar City, but I didn't really get to know Aunt Alice until I lived with the Braithwaites for a few weeks the year I attended CSU. She made me part of everything. Trusted me and encouraged me. I could always expect a smile and a lot of news when I would stop by. I miss her.

Doug and Karl:

As soon as I saw the obituary for your Mom I started remembering what a kick she was when she visited Doug and Jan a number of years ago. It's always sad to see our parents move on but it's also often a blessing for them. Condolences to both of you and your families.

Mrs. Braithwaite was my First Grade Teacher. She was a true inspiration in my life. While in class she knew I had an interest in dinosaurs, so much so that we studied dinosaurs and created posters to be placed around the classroom. Several years later when I was married, she gave me a book on dinosaurs as a gift. I will never forget this wonderful lady.

My beautiful 2nd grade teacher at North Elementary! I am so glad I got to see her one last time! What a wonderful kind lady she was.. Respectfully, Barbara (Bangerter) Bailey. 2nd Grade 1973

Aunt Alice was amazing and the most generous host. Her home was opened to anyone traveling back and forth to California or where ever they were going. Most my wonderful childhood memories are with the Braithwaites. Alice could whip up a breakfast better than anyone. She will definitely be missed. Love you Aunt Alice forever.
