Madera CaliforniaI have never met a sweeter, gentler lady than Alice. She and Vernon have so graciously shared their family with me for nearly 25 years and I am grateful for that precious gift. May God Bless and Comfort Vernon, her family and all her many friends. She was an inspiration to all who knew her and now she rests in the Lord’s loving arms.
