When I first met Alice, she was an administrator of the School of St. Mary. She was both a knowledgeable educator and a wonderful supervisor. The most remember her infectious laugh and sense of humor. She deeply loved her family. May she rest in peace, and her family be filled with warmmemories of the wonderful times you shared.

Dear Kyle Family, I was very sorry to hear of Alice's passing. I will always remember Alice's incredible laugh and the stories she told... many of them about all of you. I was extremely fortunate to witness her teaching expertise as well as experience her caring, funloving nature while she was at Hyde Park Day School. My condolences to all of you.

Alice and I shared a break-out room and taught beside each other for two years. Beyond being an immensely talented teacher, Alice was kind, gracious, and loving to her colleagues. She will be missed.

Dear Kyle Family, I was sorry to hear of Alice's passing. As a colleague at Hyde Park Day School, Alice was warm, funny, supportive, insightful and the kind of person you looked forward to seeing in the hallways every day. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

So incredibly sorry for the family of Alice, as well as the extended family and friends -- in addition to all whose lives she touched -- and that number is both countless and timeless. I knew Alice for over ten years and over that time, her smile, generosity, and love for all across teaching and learning was a blessing. She truly had the patience of a saint and was a beacon of light that shone the way for her students. Alice was honest, compassionate, and giving. And in a world that sometimes includes takers that was truly a blessing -- not only to know her but to love her. She will surely be missed and remembered for the goodness in this world that she provided to her students and for the grace, authenticity, and ethics that she brought to the profession of teaching and learning. Alice, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being my friend and my confidante. You are a gem... Heaven definitely has an angel in you!

I feel so lucky and blessed to have been able to know her and work with her. I will miss her.

Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. I am honored to remember one of the best people I ever met. Alice was the kind of Principal you become a friend with. I will continue to cherish those memories forever. God Bless You and Your Family.

I was so saddened to see my 2nd grade teacher's obituary. I attended Transfiguration school in Chicago and she was just wonderful! She was patient, kind and gentle. I would say she was a model teacher in all aspects of what she taught in the classroom. My deepest condolences to the Kyle family. She touched and made an impact on my life and the fact I still remember her, tells the story.

Dear Kyle family, I worked with Alice for many years at Hyde Park Day School. She was a friend and a supportive colleague who looked out for the best interests of her students and her colleagues. Her steady nature and keen observational wit kept everybody anchored. I cherish the fact that we remained friends after her retirement. My deepest condolences to her loved ones.
