On June 30, 1948, she married George Seifert, the love of her life, in Center. They had eight children, Georgette, Mary Alice, Philip, Catherine, Bernadette, Christopher, Michael and Teresa. Alice was incredibly proud of her family. The family grew first with 23 grandchildren and then 45 great-grandchildren with one more on the way. Religion was a central part of her life.
