Early and fond memories of Aunt Alice is seeing an exceptionally pretty worman with a houseful of happy equally goodlooking children; most of them were hers. Alice always had extra food for neighbors and relatives and her door was always open. She dedicated her whole life to her family and never asked for anything for herself.We called ourselves the “bloody relatives” since we were blood relatives. I loved that my family could just drop in anytime and Alice was warm and welcoming. Later in life she took care of Bennie with unfailing patience and energy. May she find him and the open arms of God.
