Obituary for Alice M. Broxey
Alice M. Broxey, 96, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, died Thursday, March 31, 2022. A visitation will be held from 5 – 7 p.m. on Sunday, April 3, 2022, at Murdoch-Linwood Funeral Home & Cremation Service in Cedar Rapids. A funeral service will take place at 10 a.m. on Monday, April 4, 2022, at the funeral home. Burial will follow at Linwood Cemetery in Cedar Rapids.

Alice was born January 4, 1926, in Cedar Rapids, the daughter of John and Orpha (Pollock) Humphreys. She graduated from Roosevelt High School. Alice was united in marriage to Jack Broxey on September 27, 1948, in Cedar Rapids. She worked as a secretary to the owner of Smulekoff's Furniture Company for 50 years until her retirement in 1994. Alice enjoyed watching and feeding the birds. She loved spending time at the cabin in North Buena Vista, Iowa. Alice was the most selfless person you would ever meet, always helping and feeding others – you never went away hungry.
