On June 1, 1953 Alice was united in marriage to Frank J. Chan. To this marriage three children were born: Kathryn, Judith, Todd. Through the years Alice worked a variety of Jobs in Alexandria. She began working at JC Penny and after 30 years retired in December 1996 to spend her time at home.
In 1974, Frank and Alice purchased a small hobby farm in Forada. Together they raised a variety of farm animals. Later on they changed to game farming and later specialized in Elk farming. Alice could always be found working side by side with Frank. She was right there doing whatever needed to be done including building their home on the lake in 1985.
Alice was a social person who enjoyed entertaining and could whip up enough food to feed whoever would drop by. In 2004, Alice was diagnosed with Parkinsons and dementia. She continued to live at home until September of 2015.
Alice was preceded in death by her infant daughter, Kathryn; parents, four siblings: Earl Eblen, Vivian Tuttle, Ruby Brackin, Marvin Eblen; granddaughter, Brittany Chan.

Rest in peace until we meet again. All our love.
