Not sure what to say?

I once helped put together a special event for her where she got to go back to the school she taught at for a day. It was magical to be a part of.

One year, when I was a little girl, we went to visit Aunt Alyce. She had a playhouse in her back yard and clothes to dress up in. She was always a lot of fun and a central part of every extended family gathering I attended. I miss those family times when my Grandma Ann was with us and we would all gather together.

I love you, Aunt Alyce. I remember all the happy times we spent with you when we were growing up. We just became members of your family.Rest in sweet peace, your work on earth is done. Shirley Matthews Armour

Such a beautiful and inspirational light that went out when we lost Alyce. Jason has know "Grandma Alyce" since he was an infant, and, she will be missed GREATLY! Thank You Alyce!


As We Look Back.

As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....

For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes

"70 years is our life span --80 years with special mightiness." (Psalms 90:10) Alyce had 96 years of special mightiness. May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of the times you spent together as you celebrate a life well lived.

My sincere condolences to the Harper family, especially my cousin Ben. My grandmother Delores was Alyce's cousin. I am glad they are together now conspiring in Heaven.
