There is a new boy in the family. Brad and Akina Saunders had a healthy
baby boy on June 7th, 2018 in Osaka Japan. He is a smiley one. This is
Alice's 72nd great grandchild and Mike and April's 9th grandchild.

2 Jun 2018 - Alice Eileen Laurie Saunders Funeral
We had the funeral for Alice today. It was a beautiful day and things
went smoothly. We had lots of family here so that was great. Here is
the Funeral Card. The obituary and funeral service can be accessed by
clicking on the link to Southland Funeral Chapel
One
of Alice's requests was to have "O Danny Boy" sung at her funeral. This
song was sung by a dear friend, Stephen Evanson, who worked with her at
Saunders Insurance.
It is only fitting that the bag pipes were also playing Amazing Grace at the graveside.
