I believe she said the her father, Teddy, “wanted to be the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral”.

Wasn't she also the one who said, "If you don't have anything nice to say, come sit by me"? They even named a color after her, "Alice Blue." Which led to a popular song, "My Sweet Little Alice Blue Gown."

Absolutely. You are right on both points. The color matched her eyes — a pale grey blue. My mother used to sing that to me when I was a kid because I had the same color eyes.
