She was born on October 9, 1940, in Hocking County, Ohio, daughter of the late William Alonzo and Wretha Alice (Arledge) Poling. Alice was a lover of animals, especially cats.

She will be greatly missed.
Alice is survived by her children: Terry Poling, of Wellston, Tammy (John) Smith of Bremen, and Troy Estep; grandchildren: Justin and Ashley Smith, Evan, Eric, Madalyn, and Veronica Poling; as well as a great granddaughter, Abigail Marie Smith.
In addition to her parents, Alice was preceded in death by an infant daughter.
