Alice Adams a life long resident of Brooklyn, New York passed away peacefully at the age of 91.

Fulfillment

I have worked in the fertile earth and planted a garden, so I know what faith is.

I have listened to the birds caroling in the morning and dusk, so I know what music is.

I have seen the morning without clouds after showers, so I know what beauty is.

I have sat before a wood fire with old friends, so I know what companionship is.

I have walked the path of quietness along the forest floor, so I know what peace is.

I have dwelt in the valley of remembrance on the hills of home, so I know what love is.

I have seen the miracle of Spring, the fruition of Summer, and the beauty of Autumn followed by the repose of Winter, so I know what life is.

And because I have perceived all of these things, I know what God is.
