Beloved Aunt Alice, may you Rest in Peace now that your struggles on this earth are over...we love you so much and are so glad you're with Uncle Jimmy now and forever.

Alice and Jim were two of the nicest neighbors anyone would want. My family lived next door(north) for years. Though we moved away years ago, both my sons recently were talking about the Ruzicka's. They remembered Alice always took special care at Halloween that they and the Antani girls (south neighbors) got the giant Hershey bars when everyone else had to put their hands in the bowl for potluck. Alice and Jim were the best.

May she rest in peace!
