We wanted to reach out and send our condolences since the weather prevented us from traveling to the service today. My grandfather was Bill McNeil, Bob's brother. My parents, Karen (Alice's niece) & Gib Buser and I had planned to join you today and were so very disappointed to not be able to make it there. We will always remember Alice's beautiful, loving, kind heart. She never aged and always stayed graceful. May she enjoy her eternal home until we are all joyfully reunited with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Kris (Buser) Groell

I fondly remember Alice's beautiful smile and incredible patience. She taught me so much on my first job as a teller at First National Bank. My sincere condolences for your loss. May fond memories of Alice fill your heart and may her smile always shine brightly upon you.

Alice was the best teacher anybody could have asked for both in a professional setting and also in how she viewed life and treated people. I enjoyed working with Alice at the bank in Oconto. Wanda Hugo

Alice was a very special lady. She truly cared for everyone she met. She always had a smile on her face, that made you feel right at home with her. I'm lucky to have met such a wonderful lady.
