RIP Alice Brock, 83, the restaurant owner who inspired and co-wrote part of the Arlo Guthrie Thanksgiving and antiwar classic song “Alice’s Restaurant."

She died Thursday, just a week before Thanksgiving.

“You want to know if I’m moral enough join the Army, burn women, kids, houses and villages after bein' a litterbug.”

It seems from this obit that she had a well-lived life, of which being a restaurateur was only a part.
