eleven great grandchildren;sister-in-law Joan Hammond, Tenessee.

Alice was a caring and compassionate woman. She enjoyed sewing and made many things for others through the years. She was a devout woman of Christ.  Many times she stated she had no blood brothers or sisters, but had many in Christ through Legacy Christian Church. Especially the ones in her weekly life group. Alice spent many hours telling her grandchildren about their family lineage and her childhood memories. Her favorites were of riding horses and buggy  trips to town with her dad for supplies; and at age 12 meeting Jim Brown, the love of her life at the grain elevator. She adored her great grandchildren and was so excited to share their pictures details of their visits. They will miss the way she giggled at herself.
