Alice "Toochie" Burgett, 95, passed away on January 29, 2023 in Mount Pleasant, Tennessee. Born on October 5, 1927, in Florence, Alabama to the late Marcus and Rosie Hendrix.
Alice lived a full and meaningful life as a devoted housewife, caring mother and friend to many. A proud member of the Beech Hill Church of Christ, she was known for her unwavering faith and generosity.
Alice had a passion for dogs and was a loving owner to Chris and Carrie Ann. Her home was considered the gathering place by her family and friends, and she was always known for her hospitality and kind heart. Her love for collectible dolls and salt and pepper shakers added to the warmth and charm of her home.
Despite her small stature, Alice had a big personality and a feisty attitude that endeared her to all who knew her. She was an amazing caretaker and was loved deeply by her family. Alice will be deeply missed, but her memory will live on in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her.
