Mary Alice was very active in all four churches where Bob pastored, particularly with women's programs, Sunday school, and Bible memory. She taught Sunday school for 50 years. She taught in the public schools in Biloxi and worked in real estate in Brandon. Throughout her life, Mary Alice enjoyed sewing, reading, cooking and ceramics. She did her best to follow God's laws and was a true prayer warrior. Her greatest joy was knowing her children and grandchildren would follow God's teachings. Her favorite verse was III John 1:4, "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in the Truth."
Mary Alice Lindsey Duhs was preceded in death by her husband, Dr. Robert Carl Duhs.
