Mom I can't believe it has been a month since you went home to be with Jesus. We know you are so happy now and not in any pain but it still feels like a bad dream to us. Rog and the kids and I love you and will miss you always. You have given us a lifetime of memories and traditions to pass on to our kids. Watch over us mom and guide us through this difficult journey in our lives. We love you.

We Miss You Mom!

There are so many wonderful memories we have shared. You being my second Mom was my favorite and such a blessing to have lived next door to you for so many years of my life. I also remember those sliced tomatoe & cheese with Miracle Whip sandwiches in your toaster oven. Those were the very best lunches that we shared. We didn't have a toaster oven so I would knock on your front door and beg for one of those special sandwiches. I thank God for you and your family. I was welcomed as a part of your life and you in mine. Love you always, Valerie Pitts (Las Vegas, NV) formally of 35th St.

Hi Mom:
I will miss you for the rest of my life. All your children were with you as you passed into the arms of our Savior. Alex, Vadim and Sveta are beside themselves with grief. I know you will always be with us. We all love you so very much. Your service was beautiful and uplifting just as you wanted. God Bless you mom. We will see you again in God's time.

Passage of time might diminish recollection, but I remember well Alice from nearly 30 years ago when she lived on 35th Street, San Diego. Always gracious, loving her children. Hyperactive? Perhaps, but she outlived it. Rest in peace, dear Alice.
