Your mother was a wonderful lady, true friend and will be dearly missed. Just always know that she is smiling down on you from Heaven and is with Jesus dancing and laughing again with no more hurt and no more pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I was so shocked to hear of Alice Faye's accident and death. I had known Faye since we worked together in F-15 back in the 70s and later when she worked in SOF and we were the customer in Software. I loved her dearly, her smile, her laughter, her love of friends and life itself. I am so happy that we will all be reunited in heaven and can sing together in that heavenly chorus.

To the family of Alice Faye my sympathy. From the time she did the "hula" on stage in a play at Ellsworth Hall elementary school through Miller high school and many years at Robins Air Force Base, I knew "Faye" was a special "ahead of her time" unique person and I loved her for her individualism and warmth. Her spirit was second to none and she always had a smile. She will be missed. Her mother and dad will welcome her in heaven. Trecia Hill Brower

I had just started a new job and was feeling a bit like the odd kid out when I looked up and there stood Alice. She had the most beautiful welcoming smile on her face - she made me feel like I had known her forever : ) She had that way of making everyone feel special. I loved to hear her talk about her grandchildren. She was so proud!!! I still can't believe she is gone, but I am so glad she is now out of pain. Your family is in my heart and prayers.
