Alice devoted her time to making a loving home for her family. Once her children were grown, she worked at McAlpin's as a seamstress. Alice was a woman of strong faith. She was a dedicated member and servant of Christ United Methodist Church, where she was often asked to read scripture as everyone enjoyed listening to her British accent.
