I have never known a more positive person than Alma. I can still hear her response when I would ask how she’s doing – “I am blessed.” She was more than just a warm, caring person. She also had a tremendous sense of humor. Some of my happiest days at work would be gathering with her and anyone else who happened to be around and laughing and laughing. Alma brought joy to everyone she touched. She is irreplaceable but I feel that we will all carry a part of her in us forever.

I am a better person for having known Ms. Alma and she will be greatly missed.

Everyone has pretty much said it all above. She always had the warmest, most sincere hello to offer whenever I would run into her around the shop or on the square. I am saddened and shocked by this news. I am sorry for those in our community who never had the chance to know her. She epitomized all that makes Decatur great.

My heart is heavy. She was a joy to be around and a true gift to the City of Decatur and all those who knew her. My prayers are with Alma’s family, friends, co-workers and fellow community members as we grieve this terrible loss.
