Born in Bogalusa, Louisiana, on September 1, 1953, she was the daughter of Giles Leonard Stogner, Sr. and Maybelle Theresa (Albares) Stogner. Alice was very talented and hardworking, and when something needed to be done, she made sure it got done right. In the late 1970’s, Alice work for AT&T as an operator but quickly worked her way up to the drafting department. Alice sewed all of her own dresses. When her daughter, Brittany competed in pageants, Alice would stay up all night for days creating and sewing her dresses and after the pageants people would offer to buy them. Alice was also an incredible interior decorator and would use that talent when she sold furniture for Howell’s and Broyhill Galleries. She was an amazing chief and for many years owned and operated “The French Magnolia” in Old Town Beaumont, Texas. In the last several years she would create the most beautiful jewelry. Alice had unlimited talent but she really shined as a wife, mother, and Gama and she will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
