Born on November 29, 1949, Alice was the 3rd of 13 children born to parents Clarence and Suverna Hennen. She grew up on the family farm in Jordan, MN. She attended Jordan and Prior Lake Schools. Upon graduation from High School, she began working at the Scott County Courthouse in their title office, where she continued to work for over 46 years.
As a young woman, Alice loved to dance! While at the Carver Ballroom for a dance, she met Robert Busacker, and the rest was history. They were married on August 10, 1974 at Immanuel Lutheran Church on Fish Lake. The couple moved onto Bob’s family farm in Jordan, and were blessed with the birth of their children, Jean and Paul. The family has many fond memories of time spent working on the farm together, and family vacations across the country.
When she wasn’t working at the courthouse or on the farm, Alice loved to be outside - she relished time spent mowing the yard or resting out on the front porch. As her children got older, Alice began a new chapter in her life as a devoted and proud grandma. She loved spending time with her grandkids, and made sure to spoil them at every opportunity.
Alice was also a woman of deep faith - she was a proud member of the Immanuel Lutheran Church on Fish Lake community, and looked to the Lord in times of difficulty. Selfless, loving, and kind, Alice will forever be missed by her husband of 48 years, Bob; daughter, Jean (Nate) Brening; son, Paul Busacker; grandchildren, Grant and Gavin Brening and Anna, Jordyn, Evan, and Candace Busacker; siblings, Carol (Tom) Muelken, Rose (Paul) Krueger, Dolores Poppler, Betty (Jerry) Meuffels, Paul (Nellie) Hennen, Theresa (Allan) Hanson, Dan Hennen, Allen (Laura) Hennen, Ann (Pat) Schuneman, and Mary Jo Hennen; sister-in-law, Crystal Hennen; and many other relatives and friends.
She is greeted in heaven by her parents, Clarence and Suverna; siblings, Barbara Hennen and Michael Hennen; and brother-in-law, Harlan Poppler.
