My sincere sympathy to the family of Alice Wagner.
My sympathy to all of you on the loss of your Mother. I worked with Alice at the courthouse for many years. She lived across the street from my parents and she was a great neighbor. LaDonna (McKown) McManus
Sorry to hear about Alice Ellen, We grew up in the same neighborhood, so saw her occasionally, at Elmer and Helen’s. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
