Alice was a dedicated Hospice volunteer and she spent time helping others in the final days of their lives. It seems fitting that Hospice was able to give back to her as Alice spent the final days of her life in the care of Polidori House Hospice in Lake Havasu, AZ.

A memorial service to celebrate Alice's special life will be held in the summer at the Ne So Dak Bible Camp at Enemy Swim Lake in South Dakota.
