Missy Pearson says
Unbelievable woman!! Her humor, tenacity and friendliness melted my heart. I loved her so much even though I only saw her a few times in my lifetime. I thank God I got to see her this last May as I passed through there on a road trip. God is so good! Can’t wait to see you again, Alice!!!💜

Cal and family –
Such good memories of volleyball at the Lutheran Church back in the 80’s! If Cal and Alice weren’t able to make it due to bad roads in winter there was definitely a lot less laughter and goofing off! Always had that dear smile on her face. Loved the bars you would bring to share with the rest of us, too! A truly kind couple and so very pleasant to be around. Thanks for sharing your lives and your friendship – left a very special place in my heart! May Christ’s peace guide you through your time of sorrow as I know she will be very missed…
Christine and Greg Holler-Dinsmore says
