Alice Brumett Obituary
Alice Eileen Brumett, 85, of Decatur, formerly of Warrensburg and Inverness, went home to her Lord and Savior on Friday, June 20, 2025, at Decatur Memorial Hospital.
Alice was born on Nov. 21, 1939, in Decatur, Illinois, daughter of Orval and Ruth (Alexander) Henderson. She married Norman Brumett on Sept. 8, 1957, in Decatur.

Alice's greatest joy came from her role as a grandmother and great-grandmother. She adored her great grandkids and found endless happiness in their laughter, stories, and hugs. Her legacy lives on through the love she poured into her family.
She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
Alice is survived by three children, six grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Alice was predeceased by her husband (Norman Brumett}, her parents, sister (Jodie Henderson), sister (Eileen), son-in-law Dr. Ronald Linder and infant great-grandson (Liam Odale Brumett).

I have so many happy memories of Alice. The trip to the Keys with a group of American Legion stands out as the most fun. Will always love you.

I first met Alice & Norm at the first church of God in Inverness, FL. She was a Sunday School teacher for the teens, and they loved her, and missed her when she no longer taught.
I'm sorry to hear of her passing, but now she is with Norm, and both are rejoicing.

We are so sorry to hear of Alice´s passing. Our heartfelt condolences to all of the family.
We have such nice memories of both Norm and Alice and their visits to California.
One of them being a memorable trip to the New Years Day parade! Our boarding the bus at the crack of dawn in the pouring rain that never let up. Sitting in the stands like sardines with our plastic poncho´s! Haha
Alice and Norm both were such good sports and we had fun and a lot of laughs throughout our adventure. The parade was wonderful
Alice will always be in our hearts.
Love, The Linders

I will miss her. We were close in school and even majorities together! I had gotten to visit her about two months ago and we had a great visit. My prayers will be with your family.
