Alice Irene Mercer Karr went Home to the Lord on Sunday, May 17th, 2020. Alice was born in Laredo on April 21, 1935. She married Don E. Karr on June 16, 1956 and followed Don, and the Army, for twenty-six years. They retired to Bandera, TX and eventually Cresson, TX. Alice was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and friend. She loved sharing her love for travel with her family. She was a dedicated member of MOAA for twenty years and worked tirelessly to help Service members maintain their benefits. With the Granbury, TX chapter, she was a strong supporter of the Field of Flags program and enjoyed the camaraderie of the MOAA members and community. She also enjoyed working with the GHS Science Fair Team. Left to cherish and love Alice are her two daughters: Donna Karr Floyd (Robert Floyd) and Linda Karr Chisholm (John Scott Chisholm); three grandchildren: Amanda Jekel Petrovic (Daniel Petrovic), Catherine Jekel Ronderos (David Ronderos), and Stephen Everett Chisholm; and several nieces and nephews. Alice is preceded in death by Don, her parents, and her brothers and sisters. "I go straight to Heaven - for I believe in God and his son, Jesus" John 5:24. In her own words, "Bye!"
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate to Granbury, Texas MOAA Field of Flags (sponsored by rally - project.com - 817-770-0425) or Gideons International Bible.
A graveside service will be held at 2:30 PM on 2020-05-23 at Raymondville Memorial Park Cemetery, Raymondville, TX, USA.
