Alice Brown was born October 19, 1961. In her early childhood years, Alice lived in Key
West, Florida with her parents and brothers. When her father (Sam Brown) passed, she
moved with her family to Ozark, Alabama where her mother remarried. Alice considered
her stepfather as her father for most of her life. Alice graduated from Auburn University
with a degree in Finance before moving to Orlando, Florida, where she worked as an
insurance underwriter.

Alice was married to Scott Lail on May 17, 1997. Prior to that they had been together for ten
years, so more than thirty-six years of her life was spent with her husband Scott. They were
inseparable outside of their jobs and spent every weekend together.

Alice and Scott eloped and were married in Las Vegas and made many trips back there, over
the years. Las Vegas was a favorite spot for Alice as she loved to gamble. Biloxi, Mississippi
was another one of their favorite gambling spots.

Alice loved to travel. Together, she and Scott visited at least half of the United States. They
also traveled to most of Europe and had hopes of returning there one day. Cruising was
another favorite for Alice. She and Scott went on many cruises to the Caribbean and in
Europe, as well. Their cruise to Alaska was her absolute favorite. Beyond traveling the
states and abroad, Alice loved the local attractions. She was a big Disney fan. When in town,
she and Scott spent almost every weekend at Disney World or Sea World. They would stay
at the different hotels and enjoy their weekend time together away from work.

In addition to her love of traveling, Alice was an avid reader and romance novels were her
favorite. She also loved to cook and time spent at home involved trying new recipes.

Alice was an animal lover. She loved all animals but was especially fond of cats. At one time
she participated in a “catch and release” program where she would take in stray cats, have
them neutered and then release them back where she found them. Alice welcomed many
cats into her home over the years.

Alice had two brothers, Sam Brown and Mike Brown, who preceded her in death. Her
stepfather, Harry Potts, is also deceased. Alice is survived by her mother, Elaine Potts, who
continues to live in Alabama. Alice is also survived by her loving and devoted husband, Scott
Lail, and their three cats. The numerous memories of their many travel adventures and life
experiences will be forever treasured.
