Alice in Wonderland, how did she get to Wonderland? Over the hill or Underland or just behind the tree. When clouds go rolling by. They roll away and leave the sky Where is the land beyond the eye. That people cannot see? Where can it be? Where do stars go, Where is the crescent moon? They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon, Alice in Wonderland, Where is the path to Wonderland? Over the hill or here or there? I wonder where... Since Alice died she is now in the peaceful wonderland of Heaven. 103 years is quite an accomplishment. RIP.
The history this women has seen is nuts. Imagine being able to remember dancing in the 1930's in jazz club and everything in between up until now. Nuts, like being a vampire.
Every time I watch a video of an old person, or a video of someone from many years ago, when they were still alive, I think about the millions of others who were never filmed, quietly passing away and taking with them many memories of their memorable lives. Billions of people have passed away on this Earth, most of them are only remembered by the next generation and then... just gone. Quietly born, quietly gone. I wonder what will happen to me in the future?

@@SavannahNedeff-ow9jr @kellywestgerdes173 4 yr ago @menherachan3751 this is posted above. UPDATE: Alice passed away peacefully on Wednesday, April 6th, 2016. She spent the last day of her life in good spirits, enjoying listening to music and having her mail read to her. Thank you to all the thousands of fans who sent in cards, flowers, and art. You truly gave her deep joy and meaning in the last years of her life!
Thanks to these young people we have a wonderful record of not only dance but also of a wonderful woman who loved to dance. It is strange that although age alters us a little, we don't change. She was still recognisable in those pictures and her joy was still bubbling up. Wonderful, thank you to those who made this little vignette of times past and present. Thank goodness for The Internet..voice of the people!
