  1. Light a CandleI was one of the caregivers for Maryalice. I loved her from the moment I met her. That love grew stronger with each day. She was such a kind and gentle soul. My life is sweeter because Maryalice was a part of it. She will always have a special place in my heart that will forever belong to only her. May she now Rest In Heavenly Peace. I love you my sweet, sweet friend. 🙏🏼❤️

  2. To Maryalice,
    You don’t know me, but we may have been related via a marriage that took place many years ago. I haven’t verified it yet, so I will not mention any details. The coincidences are too many; I’m sure you are the same person. I want to take this opportunity to say I wish I had met you. I am sorry you have passed on. May God point me out to you as you gaze down on us from above. I believe my relatives all thought highly of you. My mother spoke of you often. We may have passed each other many times as I live in Taylorville and used to bank at Regions. Bless you, Maryalice. A distant relative

  3. Maryalice resided at Heritage Woods of Manteno where I pastored Christian church services twice a month. Maryalice attended religiously with her warming stories and heart. She will be missed but know her faith in Jesus persisted and we will see her one day in heaven at Jesus’ side. God surely blesses her for her faithfulness.
    Rev. Valgene Raloff

  4. I knew Mary Alice quite well. We became friends back 2010. I later cleaned house for her and run errands for her. Sorry to hear about her death! May God be with your soul!
