Tom, Tommy, Brian, Dave and family,

We are so sorry for your loss. Alice was a wonderful neighbor and friend. We will definitely miss our barbecue time out front and hearing Garry ask Alice "What are you cooking over there?" She always made time to stop and talk with us and ask how Stella was doing. She will surely be missed by us:(

I had many X-rays done at HMDI by Alice who always was supportive and encouraging when I was worried about results. When I was sick after my husband's death she showed care and concern. She put everyone ahead of herself and gave comfort to others. Thank you, Alice!!!
God bless you in your new life with Christ. Edwina Lotka

I had the privilege of calling Alice my friend for 15 years. She was one of the kindest people I know. Always willing to help you or to lend an encouraging word, ALWAYS went out of her way for you. It was very hard to leave Haverford MRI mainly because I would not see Alice everyday. She loved her family very much and we shared many a story about our kids. I will miss my friend very much but I know heaven has gained another angel and her name is Alice McFadden. God Bless

Dear Tommy and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My family will never forget Alice and her kind loving spirit. I cherished her friendship and her warm heart. I admired her courage and love of life. We raised our children together and I know how much you and the boys meant to her. We always told each other how lucky we were. I will miss talking to her. I will think of her on my birthday and remember how she never forgot to call me on that day. I will prayer for you and your family at this very difficult time.

Alice loved her sons. & she loved my sons too. We sat at basketball games together & chaperoned school dances together. We lost touch over the past couple of years because we were both so busy with our families. She went through so much with her illness & she handled it with grace. She raised 3 wonderful sons & she loved her husband. I always remember her picking up a cheesesteak for him. Alice never said a bad word about anyone & she always made cakes for birthdays & if someone needed cheering up. We will miss her. Kathy Vuocolo

Thanks to everyone who helped my family in our time of need and assisted with my Mothers care. She deeply cared for and loved every one of you. My mother supported and cared for a great family, raising my brothers and I the way a family should be, very close with strong family values. I will miss all of our family dinners for everyones birthdays, etc, where we would sit around the table and talk about growing up, and other family stories. She is at rest, with my Grandparents now, in a better place. Again, thanks to everyone who helped. I love you Mom, and will always cheerish our Memories.

Love Tommy..
