Alice’s activities and interests were many. She loved her family and making them happy.

Alice was an amazing cook, especially Italian food, homemade everything from ravioli to corn pudding, it was always made with Love and she enjoyed every moment.

In her spare time she enjoyed the challenge of scratch offs and loved to watch the Redskins! She enjoyed watching the entire World Series Baseball with a win from our Nationals!
