So many stories, so little time. If I recounted them here and she was reading them she would laugh heartily at each and every one - as only she could.
Thanks, Alice for 44 years of friendship, for staying connected. And to Jack for a great heart and loving soul. You're the embodiment of what we all should be.
With love and sympathies,
Chris

Alice had more style, charm, and passion than anyone with whom I've come in contact. The twinkle in her eyes, the infectious and engaging smile, and that head of hair were Alice's trademarks. I'm certain Alice is driving her daddy's jeep on the ranch looking down on us from up there in the clouds. Be well, Dallas Alice.

I met Alice in 1983 when I was selling real estate in Castle Pines, with Moore and Co. She was a dear lady and very easy to work with. I am distressed to hear about her hard ship and send our best wishes to the family.
