"Alice started to work outside her home at an early age, as she was twelve when she worked in a office. When she married and started her family, she was a stay at home mom. She developed heart problems, so she spent her time taking care of her family. Alice would knit socks and mittens for her family. She would go for short walks with her children, Herbert would take them for longer walks. Alice like her mom, loved to read. During the war when their home was bombed out, the family moved in with Aunt Lill (Elizabeth Slade)." -- Pope Family Chronicles, 2007
