In Loving Memory of Alice Lubsch
Alice Lubsch, beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, daughter, and friend, passed away surrounded by the love of her family. Her kindness, generosity, and unwavering care for others left a lasting imprint on everyone blessed to know her.
Born to Katherine and Bernard W. LaRose Sr., Alice lived a life full of warmth and selflessness. She devoted herself wholeheartedly to her family, raising her five children — Jeffrey (Shari), Debbie, David (Sherri), Suzanne, and Lisa (Nick) — with endless love, laughter, and encouragement.
Family was Alice’s greatest joy. She beamed with pride over her grandchildren — Lucas, Olivia, Grant (Hannah), Alexander, Phoebe, and Bruno — and found even greater happiness welcoming her precious great-granddaughter, Remy, into the world.
Alice had a remarkable way of making every person she met feel special. She would do anything for anyone without hesitation, quietly becoming a role model to those around her. Her caring heart, humble spirit, and fierce devotion to family and friends defined her beautiful life.
A woman of many talents, Alice found joy in bowling and crafting thoughtful gifts for others. Almost everyone lucky enough to cross her path has a keepsake made by her — whether it’s a knitted winter hat in their colors or a treasured tissue box cover or a holiday flag for the yard.
At the end of every conversation, Alice’s words were simple but heartfelt: “Take care.”
A gentle reminder of the love and kindness she shared so freely.
In honor of Alice’s life and in celebration of her grandson Bruno, the family kindly requests that memorial donations be made to the Down Syndrome Association of Greater St. Louis. Contributions may be made to the Step Up for Down Syndrome Walk, a cause near and dear to Alice’s heart: https://p2p.onecause.com/suds2025.
Alice’s legacy of love, generosity, and care will live on through all those who were blessed to know her. She will be deeply missed and forever cherished.
