She passed from this earth peacefully on Thursday, Nov. 18, 2021, at the age of 95. She lived a long life of thankfulness, trusting God, and was a blessing to everyone she touched. She was the youngest daughter and the last of her 17 siblings to leave this earth. She grew up in a loving home and started working for income early in her life to help support her family. She loved cooking and eventually made that her life career. She married her first love, John Carter Washington and to that union they borne two children, Joan, and Darrell. John Carter passed away in 1966, but Alice was blessed to find love again and married Dan Golden in 1970. They lived a full, loving, and vibrant life until Dan’s death in 1998. Alice B. was a faithful member of New Vine Baptist Church where she served in many capacities. She joyfully served on the usher board for many years. She thoroughly enjoyed attending Sunday school, Sunday service and fellowshipping with her church...she truly enjoyed life. She had the gift of gab and would always tell “her truth” to anyone with no harm intended. She was also a faithful member of the Doral’s Club where she and Dan enjoyed many exciting trips all over the country with friends. She officially started her Catering business in the early 70’s and immediately became known for her delicious beef tenderloin, butterscotch pie and homemade rolls to name a few. It was nothing for her family to stop by her house and look in the icebox for her rolls, deviled eggs, cinnamon chocolate sheet cake or biscuits and ham. Alice’s joy of cooking and hard work influenced her grandson Kyle to start Frogtown Juice Co. of Chicago, Illinois in honor of her childhood home Frogtown, Kentucky. Mom/Grand mommy loved her hometown of Lexington and truly enjoyed all her family. When both her children married and relocated to Michigan, visiting them was a joy. When her health started to decline, she stayed in Michigan, but Michigan was too cold. Her children and family honored her desires to return to Lexington where the best care was provided. Alice B. Golden is survived by her loving daughter, Joan (John) Finn of Ann Arbor, Michigan; loving son, Darrell (Monique) Washington of Ann Arbor, Michigan; five grandchildren: Shaquisha Ray of Lexington, Kentucky; Jarell Finn, and Janelle (Bryan) Johnson of Ann Arbor, Michigan; Kyle Washington and Alayna Washington of Chicago, Illinois, three great grandchildren: Shaun Anderson, Jordyn Johnson and Averie Johnson, special daughter Bernita Taylor and a host of nieces and great nieces, nephews and great nephews, cousins, and many loving friends.
