Alice Hinch: From Caregiver to Neighbor
Born in Pittsfield, IL, Alice Hinch’s journey has taken her through many seasons of life—each marked by faith, resilience, and a heart for helping others. After her father passed away in 1964, she and her mother moved to St. Louis, where her mother began working to support their family.
Alice married Richard Varney in 1973, and they shared many years together until his passing in 1991. The following year, she married Cecil Hinch. Their time together was brief, however, and he too passed away in October 1992. Despite life’s hardships, Alice’s faith has remained steadfast—she accepted Jesus into her life at just 16 years old and continues to live out that faith each day.
In 1991, she worked as a CNA here and fell in love with the community. Years later, she chose to make it her home, finding comfort in the same place where she once cared for others.
Alice has a heart for people and a smile that brightens every room. She loves butterflies, cherishes the friendships she has made, and enjoys being part of the Baptist Homes family.
We are grateful for the joy she brings to our community!
