Alice graduated from St. Andrews High School in 1953.  She worked for various employers over the years retiring from the workforce in the mid 80’s.  She loved to sew, crochet and enjoyed the beauty of flowers, birds (red cardinals were her favourite) and nature in general.  She loved her family dearly and could always tell you where any one of them was at, at any given time.  Alice was a dear friend to many and she will be greatly missed by all whose lives she touched.
