Our Aunt Alice was always so very happy to see us when we visited! This was true when we were young and also adults! Though it was hard for her to hear, she tried her best! We loved going to their home for holidays when we were young! She and our Mom were two of the best cooks ever! Toward the last couple years of her life, she desperately yearned to have our Lord Jesus take her home! Well now she is! Love always, Nhoeuy, Vickie and Cindy
