  Alice was the third in a family of nine children born to Charles and Margaret (Sowatzke) Wells on July 28, 1921, in Shirland, Illinois. Alice was married to Lester A. Bue on November 15, 1941 at St. John's Lutheran Church in Beloit, where together they built a life together around their family and friends for more than 65 years. Shortly after their marriage, Les enlisted in the army at the beginning of WW II. Before being sent overseas, Alice was able to join Les briefly in California. On January 6, 1944 Alice and Les had a son, Leslie James, who died at birth. Leslie remained forever cherished in their hearts. Alice was a homemaker and stay at home mother throughout her children's formative years, devoting her life to raising her children. At this time, she took a number of classes at Beloit Vocational School. The knowledge she learned she shared with family and friends. One of the classes was knitting and Alice taught many to knit; even her own mother who was in her 70's at the time. When her three children were grown, Alice went to work for J.C. Penney and later to Ace Hardware, becoming head cashier. She was preceded in death by her husband Lester in 2007, her son, Leslie, her parents, her brother, Arnold Wells, her sister, Arlene Wald, her mother- and father-in-law, and seven siblings of Lester.
