Paul, Bunny, & Samantha you are in our thoughts. We are hoping you find peace & comfort. We will never forget Alice. Love always, the Faulkner family.
Sweet Alice how blessed am I to know you. I will cherish your sweet laughter and smiles. You are loved and will be missed dearly. I love you
Paul and Bunny,
We are thinking of you and your family during this time of sorrow, knowing how much you are missing Alice. There are no words that can even begin to ease your pain right now, but Mark and I remember your kind words and gifts when we lost our daughter. We wanted to remind you of a picture you gave us that provided us comfort and moments of peace and understanding during a difficult time following the loss of a child, "Heavens Very Special Child". We are thinking of you, caring about you, and here for you. Karen and Mark Campbell
Alice Smith will remain in our hearts forever. GOD sends angels to enrich our lives, Alice was an angel who enriched our lives.
From Sam:
Alice had a mitochondrial defect that altered her development. For for those fond of biology, the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. Alice was the powerhouse of our family. A sister, daughter, best friend, and some even termed her an angel.
She gave us more than we than we ever could have offered in return: lessons of patience, perspective, and appreciation.
Lesson 1:
Growing up I was highly impatient. Before our minivan was in "Park", I was toggling the door handle to jump out and run into a shopping center or restaurant. I reluctantly learned to appreciate the intricacies of assembling her wheelchair, transferring her from the van, and gathering her necessities. Alice set the pace, and she taught me to slow down.
Lesson 2:
As I began my medical career I carried one powerful perspective. No matter the limitations in motor, speech, or sensory, we mustn't underestimate the extent of one's mental capacity.
Lesson 3:
Although there were ups and downs with Alice we always counted our blessings. We were (and still are) close knit and exceptionally grateful for family and friends.
Although our powerhouse has spread her wings we will always be indebted to her.
Thank you sis. We love you.
Bunny, I send my deepest sympathy to you and your family for your loss . You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.
My deepest sympathy. My heart hurts for Us with the lose of Alice Elizabeth. In her 28 years she shared joy with Family and Friends.
Bunny, Paul, and Samantha; you have my deepest sympathy. Alice's smile was the sweetest . May you each receive God's Comfort. Betty Dunfee Childers & Nathan Childers
Dear Sweet Alice, I adored the years we learned, worked and played together. You will always have a special place in my heart Bunny and family, my thoughts are with you. Love to you all, Kay Brown
