"We were happy holding hands. Then, everything changed," the husband wrote this weekend on Facebook.
Witnesses said that Christian, who was one of the 11 injured, didn't leave his wife's side once as they waiting for help to arrive.
"It was just really sad to see because that guy was just sitting down to her left, just talking to her at first," Ruiz said according to ABC News. "Right when I got there, she was speaking little. But after that, the next thing you know she just stopped talking."
Alice had worked as a manager for a family business that makes radiators, and her father ran the company according to ABC News.
