Alice Ilene Dove

Alice Ilene Dove, passed away on November 5, 2026, in Greenwood, Indiana. She was born on April 27, 1934 in Angola, Indiana and lived a long life marked by devotion to her family, her church, and her community.

Alice was a graduate of Southport High School. She was a homemaker, a role she carried with care and dedication, creating a home centered on love and steadiness for those around her. She was a member of New Palestine Christian Church Disciples of Christ. She volunteered at New Palestine Elementary, served for several years on the New Palestine Community Council of Churches, and delivered Tote Meals. In quieter moments, she found joy in tending to her flowers and gardening, interests that reflected her gentle care and the pleasure she took in nurturing living things.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Gene Dove; by her parents, Ralph and Ruth Claudy; by her sister, Lillian Claudy; by her brothers, Kenneth Claudy and Joe Claudy; and by her sisters-in-law, Judy Mayes and Tish Claudy.

Alice is survived by her son, Russell Dove, and her daughter, Ginny Satterfield and her husband, Sam. She also leaves her sister-in-law, Barbara Galt, and her sister-in-law, Maryjo Claudy. She is also survived by her granddaughter, Lilli Dove; her step-granddaughters, Jennifer Everhart and Chris Taylor; and her great-grandsons, Nate Everhart and Ethan Taylor. She also has several nieces and nephews who will miss her as well.  Those who knew Alice will remember her for her faithful service, her care for her home and family, and the simple beauty she cultivated in both her garden and her daily life.

Her memory will be cherished by all who loved her.
