I have nothing but fond memories of Alice and marveled at her talent and beauty - inside and out - ever since I was a child.

My deepest sympathy to all her loved ones. Offering prayers that her children, grandchildren and entire family will eventually find comfort from the love of others at this time, and through the precious memories that can never be taken away.

Love,
Gail Onanian

Grandma I am going to miss you lots. I will always remember the times when you and grandpa would pick me up and we would go to the beach house at rocky point on the summer weekends of my youth and at night we would head to rocky point park or Georges for clam cakes and chowder. or the times that you would make all of us cousins laugh with your jokes, or trying to teach us words from the many different languages you spoke. and the times you would sing songs with this amazing voice you were gifted with and all your endless stories about growing up in africa . i hope there's a beach in heaven just like rocky point and a place where you can sing and dance with all your family and friends.
