Not sure what to say?

Alice always had a quiet way and a warm smile. I am sorry to hear of her passing. The world does not seem as bright without her.

So sorry to learn Alice passed away. We met at a reunion class reunion a few years back and she was the life of the party. Always hoped to see her again soon. All the best to Alice's family and friends whom I know will miss her dearly.

Oh no! I am so sorry to learn that Alice has passed away from a terrible disease. I knew her back when she was my colleague, then known as Miss Istock, teaching science at Mansfeld Middle School & of course later as Mrs. Stone. When my daughter was in 6th grade, Alice was working in a lab at the University & graciously met with my daughter & her lab partners as they set out to create an entry to the science fair. Darned if they didn't come in second in the entire region! I'll...

Your memory continues to bless us every day.

My friend, my hero...Always.

My heart goes out to Alice's family and friends. While I never met her, I have worked with her mom, Nancy Istock, for many years. It sounds like she possessed a strength and zest for life just like her mom. I am so sorry for the loss of this beautiful woman.

I read Alice's Op-Ed today in the Arizona Daily Star. For far too long we have ignored the issues of Death with Dignity. My husband also faced Alice's situation and we talked at length about this. Thank you Alice for thinking about sharing such an important message during a very difficult time. I send many warm thoughts to Alice's family.

Very sorry for the loss of Alice. May her memory be eternal.

I was a 7th grade student at Mansfeld Middle School when Ms. Istock was my science and home room teacher. Her father was a colleague of my father at the U of A. She introduced me to science and opened doors for me to explore. Our class took field trips to her parent's laboratory at the U of A. It helped me immeasurably as I got older and now am able to apply things I learned then to my career now. To her family I extend my deepest sympathies for your loss is shared by me and many others.
