She is survived by her grandson Lamar Grizzle and his wife Mandy Grizzle; great-grandsons Jared and Daniel Grizzle; great-granddaughter Allison Grizzle Honeycutt and her husband Chris Honeycutt; great-great-grandchildren Dylan and Rylee Honeycutt; nieces Doris Burzynski and Beth Elliott; nephews Jerry Burgess and Ronnie Anderson; several great nieces and nephews; a special care-giver of six years, Karen McKee; and Purple Gunter, who was like a daughter.

The family would like to thank Northeast Georgia Hospice and the Resting Nest of Gainesville for being so helpful and loving to Alice in her last days. 

Funeral services are scheduled for 2:00 PM Saturday, November 17, 2018 in the chapel of  Anderson-Underwood Funeral Home.  The Rev. Lyman Caldwell will officiate and a eulogy will be given by Mrs. Karen McKee.  Interment will follow in Mt. Hope Cemetery.
