The Garden Island, Lihue, Kauai, Tues., 3-30-1920
HUSTACE, ALICE nee MULLER
DEATH WINS IN LONG STRUGGLE.  The long, drawn struggle of Mrs. T. F. Hustace with 
influenza, extending over nearly four weeks of alternate hopes and fears, 
terminated fatally last Friday morning. Fortunately her mother, Mrs. William 
Muller, arrived from Kona in time to see her alive and to receive a glad smile of 
recognition just before her beloved daughter breathed her last. An impressive 
funeral service was held in the Lihue Union Church on Saturday afternoon, 
conducted by Rev. R. W. Bayless and Rev. J. M. Lydgate, with suitable music and a 
wealth of beautiful flowers contributed by sympathetic friends. There was a large 
attendance in spite of a torrential downpour of rain. The body was taken to 
Honolulu by her mother. The children remain for a time in Lihue in the care of 
Mrs. Hustace senior. Alice Muller Hustace was an exceptionally gifted and 
brilliant woman, endowed with graces and accomplishments such as are not often 
found in an ordinary rural community. A slight strain of Hawaiian gave her those 
natural qualities of grace, dignity, and responsiveness that are 
characteristically Hawaiian, while her foreign parentage gave her the vivacity, 
intelligence, initiative, and sense of responsibility that betoken the culture and 
refinement of generations of education and training. In addition to being socially 
attractive, she was an ideal mother, devoted to the welfare of her children and 
remarkably successful with them. Her gifts and graces made her a valuable member 
of the community, more especially as she was always ready to use them in any way 
that she could, modestly, yet efficiently.
