To Alyce's Family
She was a wonderful guiding light to many of us who shared her passion for Doernbecher and the children who were helped there. We appreciated her opinion and it helped shape our board and the leaders who followed. Thank you for sharing her with us.

Dear Thayer & Family - When I retired from teaching I had the pleasure of playing bridge against Alyce at the Town Club. She was a friend of my mother because they both loved bridge, reading, and their hairdresser, Alice.

Alyce read it and immediately informed all her "southern" friends that they should absolutely read it. Your wonderful mom...what a force! Betsy

Alyce was large in our lives, a friend, a mentor, a role model. We are sorry and saddened to be out of the US at the time of her passing and, particularly, her memorial service. Out thoughts
turn to Thayer, North, and Sally and we wish that we could be present to show our affection and respect for them, as well.
