Alice M. Splan, age 93 of Janesville died Thursday, September 11, 2025 , at Huntington Place in Janesville. She was born October 17, 1931, to the late Saloma Moody (Brown) and Doc Moody in Palatka, FL. Alice married Bill Splan on December 31, 1947, in Camden, GA. After Bill left the US Navy they settled in Palatka, FL to raise their family surrounded by her sisters and extended family. In 1963 a good job opportunity presented for Bill and the family moved to Clinton, WI. She was scared and lonely in the early years but determined to make a loving home for her family. Alice was a hard worker and held a number of jobs over the years to help keep food on the table. Most notably she drove the Avalon school bus route for Clinton Schools for 38 years. She is fondly remembered by generations of former students that rode her bus. An avid crocheter Alice gifted blankets and tablecloths to everyone in her family. She will be remembered by everyone lucky enough to pass through her kitchen as a woman of boundless love. 

 Alice is preceded in death by the love of her life, Bill Splan, two of their sons, Tanjore Splan & William J. Splan Jr., her parents, and two of her sisters Ozella Plymel and Louise Garrett.
