Until the end of her earthly life, Alice treasured her friendships from both her high school and college years.

She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, gardening and working on her patio, dancing, traveling, enjoying good food and desserts, and listening to music, her favorite genre being country and western, particularly George Strait. Alice had a great love for her cats, MeMe and Isabel. She was a loving daughter, sister, mother, and grandmother, who was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by her family, friends, and all who knew her.
