Alice was one of the kindest, most helpful, and wisest women I’ve ever met. She was my friend, always patient and willing to assist. She will be missed, but I know she’s in a more beautiful home now, greeting her loved ones. Godspeed, dear Alice, as you touch the face of God. :heart::hibiscus:

I loved Alice very much. She and a collection of the finest women in the world had a close-knit, fun friendship with my mother, Jane Price. Some of my most cherished memories include this group and Alice. I’m very sad to hear this news. Blessings to all of you. Jo Nan
