She was born on July 8, 1916, in Clinton, Maine, the daughter of the late Carroll and Annie (Ashe) Nelson.
Alice attended Clinton schools, and later moved with her family to Dover. While working at the Baer Farm in Rollinsford, Alice met and married Charles (King Tut) Tuttle on Nov. 17, 1939. They had two daughters and two sons while making their home in Eliot, Maine. She and Charles operated " King Tuts" in Eliot where she was well known for her signature apple pies and the like.
Alice had many loves; first, family, then growing flowers, knitting, crocheting, reading, doing crossword puzzles, word finds, and cooking. At the age of 8 Alice and her parents were crocheting booties for Regal Knitting of N.Y., which continued for years. She enjoyed listening to Old Country Western Music on the radio on Sunday mornings after making her wonderful blueberry muffins. A highlight throughout Alice's life would be knitting sweaters for family members, no matter how difficult the pattern.
She was predeceased by three granddaughters, Roni-Sue, Tammy, and Pammy Hinds, brothers Richard, Maurice, and Ivol, and sister Velma.
