Alice Rose Montgomery, age 90, passed away peacefully on May 6, 2025. Alice was born on November 11, 1934, to BJ and Jewel Vineyard. Alice was raised in Mesquite, TX, and graduated valedictorian of Mesquite High School at 16 years old. She went on to pursue her higher education at Drughams Business School.
Alice led a highly successful career, retiring from both National Oil Well and the Federal Reserve. She married Billy Jo Montgomery in 1955, and gave birth to their only child, Lana Jo, in 1959. Alice was a deeply religious and family oriented woman. Alice was actively involved in church throughout her life and remained a member of Mt. Olive Baptist Church until her passing.
