Alice was born the daughter of Juluis and Urbania Cornelius DeBrouwer on October 14, 1910, near Tama, Iowa in the Salt Creek Township. She attended rural school near her home until the eighth grade. She was united in marriage to Louis Wauters on January 8, 1929 at the St. Bridget Catholic Church in Victor. To this union were born their daughters Lavona and Mary Ann. The couple farmed together until Louis’ death in 1959. She enjoyed being outdoors tending to the farm. She raised a large garden and took pride in maintaining it. She also enjoyed sewing, often making quilts and comforters, which she tied. She often looked forward to attending craft shows with her daughter in surrounding towns. She held many garage sales in which many people drove from miles around to attend. Alice is survived by her daughter Mary Ann (Wayne) Conrad of Marengo; and her grandson Gary Conrad of Marengo. She was preceded in death by her parents; her daughter Lavona Jansen; her brothers Prosper Holevot, George Holevot and Arthur DeBrouwer; and her sisters Helen McCape and Martha Meyer.
