She was born the fourth of six children including Mary, Sarah, Georgina, Ruth and Alexander Mitchell. Alice graduated from Newtown High School in Elmhurst, New York, and then worked for the New York Life Insurance and Federal Reserve Bank before marrying George Frederick Jude. Alice and George met during summer youth time vacations at Whaley Lake, New York.

Alice and George were founders of the Camelback Bible Church. It was Alice’s greatest joy to serve the Lord through her welcoming compassionate personality. The church and her family, both in Phoenix, and extended family were her love and highest priorities in her life. Alice and George resided in the Biltmore Estates, and then, The Terraces in Phoenix. When George passed on in 2007, Alice moved to be with Nancy in Glendale, California where they attended La Canada Presbyterian Church. Alice relocated with Nancy to Raleigh, North Carolina in 2010. She resided at the Brookdale Heritage of Raleigh where she attended and loved the Sunday morning Gideon led services. Alice kept the staff and friends well supplied with Lindt chocolate balls! Alice always took to heart the problems others were facing and endeavored to support and encourage them in any way she could. We will miss her friendly smile, great sense of humor and enormous generosity.
