My heart breaks for you and your family. My precious friend Merlene always told me how much Alecia did for her and what a wonderful wife and Mother she was. I am so sorry for you and your family. You are all in my prayers.May you all fine comfort in our
Lord .
I grew up in Fairway Acres where the Suddreth family lived and have many fond memories of time spent with them, including playing basketball in their driveway, and enjoying cold watermelon on a hot summer evening. Sad to hear the news of Alicia’s passing.
I’ve known Alicia most of her life, starting out on Allendale Circle, starting school with our son, Monty, knowing her mom and dad and spending so much time with them Then keeping up with her through her high school years and thru her sickness as a young lady. Talked with her many times during Willistine’s illness, always upbeat and happy. She was a wonderful mom to the children and on, how she loved her grandchildren. I know your hearts are broken, but she’s now safely HOME and has finished her journey, we WILL see her again in God’s time for us. We will be praying for your family, for God’s comfort as only HE can give you. Please know the entire family is in our thoughts and prayers, May God hold you in His arms as you travel this new path in your lives. Patty and Bill Adkins
