I knew Alyce at Collier Park, where she was a beloved resident for many years. She loved activities and was always a very sweet person who was a friend to all. We shared a love of cats. Alyce will be missed by so many.
My name is Cheryl Bridgwater. We knew miss Alyce well. My parents lived in her apartment across from her for several years. She was like family. She was loving and sweet, as well as, knowledgeable. I have thought of her often over the years. My parents are both deceased in 2002 & 2019. My dad, Sonny, and Chris worked together some and he was like a brother. Peace be with you!
