Notes about Alice we miss you

See http://www.azstarnet.com/allheadlines/280333    Open Comment Window

Alice Papcun was just an amazing person, a warm , wonderful unique woman who even when she was in pain near the end of her life could always find a kind word for a child and would always still make the effort to consider carefully and respond to anything a friend said.  Simply, absolutely honest and direct, she worked hard all her life to stand up for what she believed - to help defend others rights.  

I couldn't believe the petty nasty comments on the starnet site.  Those people didn't even know Alice!  How dare they use Alice's passing as their platform to make snide remarks and overgeneralizations.  

Dear god, I miss her.  I know these last years were difficult and she told me she was ready to go, but selfishly, I wish she didn't have to go yet.  Peace be with you Alice."

2009-02-15 Where are Alice's words?
I know Alice has been interviewed many times but I can't now find the transcripts on the net.  Here is another tribute

but I'd like to post Alice's own words here, or at least have them.  When I asked to interview her or do some writing with her she said she'd given too many interviews already!  But now I don't know where to find them, to keep hold of at least some thoughts and ideas of hers.  If anyone would like to contribute a memory or quote that would be wonderful.  And if there is a letter that you think Alice would not mind sharing, that would be too.  I know there is so much more and I wish she had written a book, but short of that we have our memories. --gv
