I am distressed to just be learning of Alyce's passing. I've known Alyce since she joined New Beginnings in 1982. She was an active member and facilitator, a gentle and compassionate soul. She and David participated in our couples group until his death. After Alyce moved to Rockville, she and I met occasionally for lunch. My last memory of her is a pleasant meal at (what I think was) her favorite Ethiopian restaurant. My deepest condolences to the family.

I am so sorry to hear the news about Alyce. I have only known her for the past four years, but in those four years, she has enriched my life, therefore enriching my family and friends, lives and relationships. I will miss her wisdom, intelligence, uniqueness, honesty and loyalty. I'm so grateful that our paths crossed. May your family find peace and comfort in the memories and legacy you created.
