Alice Gullion-Blalock passed away May 3, 2019 at 2:50 pm at the Arbor Hospice Residence in Saline, MI. A lifetime Iowa native and long-time Des Moines south-sider, Alice spent her last years living with her son in Ann Arbor due to early onset Alzheimer’s disease. After complications arising from a fall left her unable to recover, she was forced to make her departure from this world.
Alice is survived by her son and only child, Robert “Bo” Blalock and daughter-in-law Jewel; her siblings Mary and Tom; and nieces, Laura, Katie, and Sam.
A reception celebrating Alice’s life will be held Saturday, June 1, 2019 from 1 to 3 p.m. at Hamilton’s on Westown Parkway, 3601 Westown Parkway in West Des Moines, IA.

I was shocked to hear of Alices passing. We worked in the same building for many years. Unfortunately, I lost touch after my retirement and moving out of Iowa. My condolences to Bo and her family.

Alice was a gifted person. She was a terrific state employee and I so enjoyed working with her. And she adored her son, Bo. Such a loss!

I am saddened to hear of Alice's passing. We go back a very long way....to kindergarten at the old Attica school and all though out high school. We shared many sleepovers at each others' homes and hours together on the bus. We lost contact after graduation, but I will always remember those childhood times. May she rest in peace.
