Alice’s Story

Site created on January 11, 2021

Welcome to our CaringBridge website.  We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement and thank you for taking the time to journey with our family during this season.  Be sure to click Follow if you would like an email when new updates are available.  We will be posting Journals as we continue.

On Thursday, December 31st, Mom had a biopsy of a cyst on her pancreas.   The procedure led to painful acute pancreatitis and COVID.  She was subsequently hospitalized on January 8th, her birthday.  

Her other medical conditions have made battling COVID difficult and particularly her breathing. On January 10th, Mom was moved to ICU to expand the breathing machine options.  She fought bravely while struggling to get enough oxygen.  On January 11th, she chose to go on a ventilator to giver her body a chance to rest and hopefully heal. 

On 1/15, we learned the biopsy of the cyst on the pancreas showed no malignant cells.


On Sunday, January 17th with her sons by her side, Mom  went home to be pain free and at Jesus side.

Thank you ALL for taking the time to go on this journey with us.  We are blessed with an amazing family and incredible friends that continue to share and express your love, support and encouragement as we walk this path together.  

Love,
Gary, Todd and Brian

Today, we remember a beautiful woman who lived, loved and laughed with us and inspired us to love Christ, love people and to be more than we could hope or imagine. We  love and miss you, Mom!
