Alice Louise Mounts

Alice Louise Mounts, 72, a resident of the Good Shepherd Community Nursing Center of Phelps, Ky, passed away on Monday, February 10, 2020 at Pikeville Medical Center.  She was born December 16, 1947 at Freeburn, KY, to the late Virgil & Etta Mae “Stump” Mounts.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by one brother: Gary Dean Mounts & one sister: Linda Gaye Adams.

Alice was a God-fearing woman and a member of the Freeburn Free Pentecostal Church of God.  Her favorite pastimes were reading the Bible and listening to gospel music.  One of her favorite songs was “Count on You Lord”.  As a resident of Good Shepherd, she was often paired up with a roommate.  Alice would often say to her roomie, “Leave it on that religious station.”, when they wanted to watch something else.   Alice’s reply would be “Everyone needs the Lord.”  She’d also often say, “All it takes is to have the faith of a mustard seed, & I’ve got it.”  In earlier years, taking care of her mommy & daddy meant everything to her & Alice loved every child she ever saw.  She will be missed by her family, as well as her family at Good Shepherd.
