Sad to see that Alice Marie passed away several years ago. She was very sweet, I remember her well. She still had the same smile in her last picture posted. Condolences to her family and friends for a significant loss of a gentle spirit like her. She is in good hands now, but surely missed by her loved ones.
Thomas Joseph Meriwether (1966)
Very sorry to learn of Alice's passing. She was an exceptionally nice person, blessed with a ready sense of humor. When last we spoke a few years ago, I shared with her a specific memory I had of her in the 10th grade and she just laughed out load, which in turn started me laughing.
A little late in saying, perhaps, but God speed, Alice.
Rita Corinne Palos (Dearborn) (1966)
I'm sorry to hear of Alice's passing and remember her as a quiet and sweet classmate. Condolences to her family.
James Rodney Goetz (1966)
Alice and I were quite good friends in High School. Alice was a very nice person, I was this fat kid in High School, had a lot of friends,but no girls would give me the time of day for a date. Alice was my one and only date in High School. We had a great time, went to the drive-in.
I don't remember ever seeing her at any of the reunions and always wondered what happened to her. Just read her Memory notice and found out she lived in Vista, I live in Oceanside. She married a Getz, I'm a Goetz. Her husband is Bill, I have a brother Bill.
I'll miss you my Friend and God Rest.
