My heart goes out to your family and the loss of Alice. The loss of a love one is a heartbreak that others may not fully understand. Yet, God recognizes the pain you are experiencing and keeps track of your tears as if collecting them in a bottle. (Psalms 56:8) Rely on Him for strength during this difficult time. Sending my deepest condolences to your family at this time.
