Some of Alice's Paintings
Alice worked in different
art media
I took pictures of the paintings as they were on display
at Jenkins Public Library during the Fall Festival. She gave me the sad
eyed cat for my birthday one year. It is one of my favorites.
This is probably my very favorite one.
It was a Christmas gift and I treasure it.
Painted on a black tile.

While residing
at Venture Home Again in Prestonsburg, Alice gave
a chalk talk and received this Certification of
Appreciation.
Below is a
sketch Alice made of Jerry's niece.

Alice as a freshman at Lee
College in Cleveland, TN, not long before her illness set in.
Alice was "Student of the Month" at
Lee College (now Lee University) in
Cleveland, Tennessee, and this article
came out in their May, 1964 newspaper
The Clarion.
Our Student of the Month, Miss Alice
Mae Adams, 19, of Detroit, Mich., is
active in many phases of campus life.
She is enrolled in the teaching
training course of the Junior College
Invision. She hopes to teach
kindergarten or the first grade
because of her love for children.
This is an occupation very worthy of
her philosophy: "I feel that our
two purposes in life are to serve God
and to help our fellow man."
Here at Lee, Alice is a freshman
representative on the student council,
and she represented that organization
in this year's Parade of Favorites.
She belongs to the Pioneers for Christ
and to the Girls' Athletic
Association. The girls on her
hall elected her ot serve on the dorm
council. Both the IClarion" and
the IVindaguaI have enlisted her
artistic talents.
Miss Adams says that she had always
heard about Lee College, but coming
here was only a distant goal.
she is more than happy that this dream
has been realized. She says of
Lee, "I feel that Lee is a scool of
God's training, and here you learn not
only through books, but through
associations with Christian young
people."

The Praying Cat
"Please,
see my paws under my chin? May I come in?"
Alice's cat would stand at the door and
"pray" to come in. Notice the position of its front paws. Mother
gave it the name "Praying Cat."

A sad note to this page. (Today is February 14, 2004) Since doing this page, Alice
has become critically ill and is currently on life support. Many prayers
are being sent up for her recovery. Alice has been transferred to
Greenbriar Healthcare Center in Wheelersburg, Ohio. Please include her on your prayer
list and prayer chains.
Update
July 16, 2004. Alice
left us today or at least her diseased body left us. She can never leave
us because she lives in our hearts and will always be near. Two special
memorial pages were prepared and posted in my web site, Heart 2 Heart. The
links are listed below

Heart 2 Heart)
