She retired from Buick in Flint, Michigan. Alice also previously worked as a neighborhood Avon Lady. At Avon, she made the President’s Club based on high sales as an achievement. Alice also worked as a professional portrait painter. When her children were small, she worked as a Lunch Lady at Carman Park Elementary School in Flint, Michigan. Alice enjoyed gardening, bowling, skiing, crafting, and ice skating for entertainment. She will be sorely missed by all that knew and loved her!
