Alice Irene Kofoed Hammond, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away Tuesday, September 23, 2025 at Rocky Mountain Care in Evanston.

She was born on December 2, 1950, in Evanston, Wyoming, to Lynn Jensen Kofoed and Alice Ila Robinson. She spent her early years with a love for the land, often visiting Hillard to help on the Robinson Ranch, where her love for hard work and family grew.

Alice had a gift for creativity and craftsmanship. She was an exceptional seamstress, capable of creating anything from intricate quilts to her daughter's prom dress. Her talent also extended to crocheting, cross-stitching, and making beautiful handmade items for her loved ones. These creations, like her love, will be cherished for generations to come.

Family was everything to Alice. She dedicated herself to nurturing her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, and her pride in their accomplishments was evident in every conversation.

Her home was a place of love, laughter, and warmth, where she taught those around her the values of love, charity, and service. Her generous heart, warm smile, and strength in the face of life's challenges were hallmarks of her character.
