Mrs. Alice Mae Tarr, 86, of Titusville, went to her heavenly reward, on December 31, 2020, at Wesbury United Methodist Community in Meadville.

Mrs. Tarr was born on May 2, 1934, in Oil Creek Twp., Venango County, Pennsylvania, to the late Carl and Edith Mae Stokes Millard. She was married to Donald P. Tarr on December 5, 1953, at the Kaneville United Brethren Church. They were married for 67 years.

Alice was a graduate of Pleasantville High School.

Alice and her husband owned and operated Tarr’s Country Store in Titusville for 39 years and Tarr’s Purity Market in Oil City for two years. She retired from the store in 2017 at the age of 83. Alice and her husband also farmed for 40 years. She loved being outdoors, working with animals, working at her country store, and she loved people, especially the poor. She was an avid supporter of missions, especially those that met needs of children. But most of all, she loved Jesus Christ, her Lord and Savior. She never missed an opportunity, no matter the circumstances, to witness for Him. Her life’s goal was to hear her Father say, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.” She accomplished her goal.

Alice attended the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Franklin. Prior to that, she was a faithful member of the East Troy Community Church in Titusville.
