Alice was united in marriage to the late William Charles Kuiper in Racine on December 18, 1942 at Racine Christian Reformed Church.
They were married for 67 years. Alice was a hard working farm wife, amazing mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and great-great grandmother who had a strong faith in God. She showed Christ’s love to her family, church family, and Christian school through acts of kindness by sending cards of encouragement, visiting, baking, and cooking for special occasions, and for those who were sick, grieving, and lonely.
