   I was heartbroken when I heard the news of Alice’s passing. I have known her and Robert for as long as I can remember. Robert and my dad have known each other many many years. Robert and Alice were always smiling and always friendly. I so enjoyed talking to Alice. This world has lost a very sweet woman but heaven has gained a sweet angel.
   Our condolences to Robert and the family.
