In the fifties and sixties we frequently met Alice on our way from the Casino to Sullivans in the summer. She will be missed. RIP.
Kristy,
We are so sorry that we will be unable to attend the services for your mom. Alice was always a bright spot in our lives, whether we saw her at work or on our daily walks. She always had a smile and a kind way about her. We are so incredibly sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry to hear of Alice”s passing. We went to St. Paul’s school together. She was a very kind and sweet person. I’m sure you will all miss her very much. Please know that she is in my prayers. RIP Alice!
It was so sad to hear of Alice’s passing last week. At the April class luncheon, it was a relief to see that her bright shiny personality has survived in retirement.
It was always a joy to spend time with Alice. I surmise the class of 64 will miss her for years to come. She left us way too soon.
All my best to her family during this difficult time.

Kristy, i was saddened when I heard of your Mom’s passing. She had a joyous laugh, and a delight in sharing life with her friends. A smile and a twinkle in her eye gave everyone she knew a special place in their heart. All those wonderful summers she shared at Glens Lake were such happy times for a lifetime. When you were out with her, she knew everyone. She was so loved by everyone. She defined Best Friend. Just ask the wonderful people she shared her life with. We have a heart full of memories. I loved that she spent her winter walking the Florida beaches, and was decorating her home. Thankyou, Alice for the happy time. Love.
Alice was such a sweet, charming, and warm lady. It was always a pleasure to have her answer the phone, or to greet you at the office during her long career. Alice would be disappointed if I showed up at the office without bringing an off-color joke or cartoon, so I learned to always be prepared. That was part of my tax prep. I missed her after she retired, as I’m certain anyone who knew her always will.
To Alice’s Family,
On behalf of the family of Tony and Mary Luciano, I would like to express our condolences on the passing of your mother. We lived two houses down from your Mom on Poplar Street when we were all growing up. What nice neighbors. Your Mom was always friendly and kind. May she rest in peace.
Kristy – I am so sorry for your loss; may fond memories bring you comfort.
