She was generous with her time and talents as a volunteer at the Cerebral Palsy Center where she entertained by playing the piano to enthusiastic audiences.
She was a long time member of First Presbyterian Church Elizabeth Circle.
She was committed to her community and was on the Hunter's Creek Village planning and zoning commission for 23 years.
After raising her family she embarked on a successful career as a real estate broker with Memorial Realty.

She is also survived by her cousin Jeff Carroll as well as many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and grand-nephews. All will miss Alice's smile, her jokes, her laughter, and her undeniable commitment to them.
