Alice became my dear friend when we met as college roommates. We shared many memories and happy times together, including being a bridesmaid in her and Roger's wedding to travels in Virginia and in New Mexico. Her lovely home was always welcoming, and her kindness and generosity were ever present. I shall miss our friendship, laughter, and good visits together.
