We have been friends with Alice for many years and she was always kind and gracious and a very giving person. She had great love for gospel music and loved the work of the ministry and had a great insight for spiritual things.
She will be missed by us all.

If it is true that "laughter is good for the soul," Alice had the best soul ever! She could find humor in anything, and her unique and quick wit made all who knew her love her. I will miss her so very much.

I was so saddened to hear of Alices passing. She always had a smile and friendly hello for shoppers at Perfect Setting. My thoughts and prayers are with her Perfect Setting family.

Full of smiles and happy...that was the Alice I remember from our younger days at Washburn High. At a reunion years ago, she sat at the piano in Ed and Marilyn Plissey's home and of course, we sang at our heats content.

We laughed, we cried, we experienced, we traveled, and then we laughed even more. My friend has entered into a new realm, and I will miss her until that day that we will be together again. Thank you Alice for enhancing my life.....a huge hole will remain in my heart till we are together again.

I've had the privilege to know Alice my whole life. She was like my Grandmother and always treated me special and with love. Anyone that knew her loved her and our lives will never be the same without her. I miss her so much she was incredible woman, so loving and giving. Looking forward to continuing my good times with her in Heaven!

The most rewarding thing in life is to know when your loved one has said goodbye, theyare in the arms of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
We trust that peace and conentment will be found in that, even though she'll be missed for sure.
The Lord confort you

The name I gave to you and called you all my life was Aunt Alice. I always looked forward, as a child, to you coming home for a visit so I could spend the night with you, wear your shoes, eye glasses and take walks into "town". You once commented that I really should have been your daughter because we were so much alike. Whenever we were in a room with a piano, you always insisted I play "for you". The years have taken many loved ones from me and now I must add you to the list. You have entered into the joys of heaven..your final trip, Aunt Alice. My love....until then..

Alice, Paul and I can't believe you're gone after being in our lives for so many years. We will keep you alive by reminiscing over our times together. It was only about two weeks ago that you called me on the phone and weakly said, Did you think I had gone to the happy hunting ground?" I was so excited to hear your voice. I know I will cry the next time I walk into The Perfect Setting and you're not sitting in your usual place. Thanks for being so generous to Paul and me; but, really, you were so generous to everyone. You will always be in our thoughts. Margaret and Paul Donn

She always made you fill welcomed!!!!

We shared many experiences over the years. You shared your love of music with me, as a teenager you used to send me records of Vestel Goodman and others. You helped me find a place to live when I went to Connecticut to work at my first office job. Over the years we have shared, travels, laughter and friendship.
You will be missed.
