My Mother, Emma Carter and I recently found out Alice passed away in 2023. My Mother asked me to try to find out what happened because Alice called her weekly and the calls abruptly stopped. We all worked together at AT&T until the plant shutdown in 2001. You and your family have our deepest condolences. Alice was a wonderful lady.

I met Alice in Sunday School at New Bridge Baptist Church probably in the late 60´s. She was a dedicated friend during a low time in my life, calling every week just to chat-no questions, just friendly conversation.
Alice and I had the love of cats in common and they were always part of our telephone calls.
She will be missed. My sincere sympathy to her family that she spoke of often and loved very much.
