Alice was born on March 9, 1927, in Dickens, Texas to Alvis and Ethel (Basham) Hicks. Her dad was a Baptist preacher, so her family enjoyed living in many small towns in the Texas panhandle.

She married Bob J. Scarborough and they were blessed with 4 children, Linda, Joe Dennis, Julieana and Marcus.

Alice’s passion was teaching. She touched many lives through the years first teaching private kindergarten and then high school English at Petersburg High School where she also directed school plays. She loved to play piano hymns by heart.
