Alice, I miss talking to you on the phone and you telling me about mom and dad and our lives growing up at the cement plant houses. You shared with me some great stories and experiences that I had forgotten or was too little to remember. I thank you for all the stories because you helped me know more of our growing up years and our lives. Over the years after I moved at age 17 to Portland, Oregon, we talked on the phone and you were always happy when I called and we shared what was going on in our lives. Sometimes I didn't share everything because I didn't want to worry you. I visited Kansas when I could and, you either came to Humboldt or I would go to see you in Wichita and you always were happy to have me stay at your lovely home. I appreciate all the time together and the phone calls and cards and pictures sent back and forth over the years. You always did your best to look pretty and well groomed no matter what and I thought that was outstanding! I know you're happy in heaven but I was so looking forward to seeing you again this coming summer! It's not easy living so far away from family which I didn't really think of at age 17 when I moved away. I close this note by saying again, I miss all the phone calls and hearing about your life present and past. I lovel you, Cecilia
Mary Alice was my friend since we met as freshman in 1953-54 at Humboldt Highschool. We worked together in the cafeteria. We sat at table in study hall. She left school to get married when we were in the Junior class. I did not see her again until she became a resident at Arrowood Lane. I visited her there and talked with her on the phone for many years until her passing. She was a sweet and caring person. I will miss her sweet voice.
