    Our prayers and thoughts are with the family now and in the days to come. Alta was such a loving, caring and a blessing to all. She also was such a good friend to my mother Madie Durham. Alta will be missed even though we know that she is at peace and with God.

    Dear Alice – don’t know if you remember me – Reta Cambridge from school. Saw where your step mother passed away. Sorry. Seems she had a long, hopefully wonderful, life. Regardless or their age we still miss them when they are gone. Prayers to your family.
