Alice Smith

I was a regular (every Friday night) in Alice's classes more than 50 years ago. She was an amazing teacher and influence in my life. Because of Alice I went on to get a BFA (while raising 5 children) and then to this day continue with my art/painting and designing. I'm sorry she's gone and especially sorry I didn't remain in touch with her thru the years. She's one of the people who changed my life and I wish I had told her so.

Condolences to all of Alice's family. She was truly a gifted soul.

My sympathy and condolences to Alice´s family and friends at this difficult time. I had the good fortune to meet Alice through her position on the board of trustees at the Captain Leonard House. She was always there, ready to work and share her vast knowledge, opinion, advice and humor. She always made me feel like a friend and her kind spirit was always appreciated. The Leonard House will greatly miss Alice´s presence......it won´t be the same there without her, but it will always be...

Alice was an inspiration to all of us at Fitness First in Feeding Hills. She was an amazing woman in all she did and cared about everyone around her. I enjoyed the chances during our early morning workouts to chat with her when we could. Alice would get festive during our "themed" classes as well. I wish I was able to attend but I am out of town. Hugs from the Fitness First early morning crew!

God speed Alice, I was not able to pay my respects, but you are someone I will never forget and I will greatly miss you. Till we meet again jim

Heartfelt thoughts are with your family about Alice. Without a doubt she was an inspiration to many. I was honored to know her from the Captain Charles Leonard House. Her vast knowledge, patience, story sharing and joyful charm made her someone you wanted to know and honored to be in her presence. She has left her mark on so many through her artistry and personality. She was a true gift.

I was so sorry to hear of our loss of Alice. She was a lady, a very talented Trustee of the Captain Charles Leonard House. Her researched historic stencils, hand painted by Alice, as all itinerant artists would have done, line the walls of the House. Her vast artistic knowledge and sweet, sweet personality will be missed. Thank you Alice.

Alice brought so much joy through her art and love of our community. She always had such a beautiful smile and never failed to provide a kind word or share her vast knowledge. Having worked with her on the celebration of Agawams 150th anniversary brought me such joy and her friendship with forever be in my heart. Blessed for knowing your wonderful mom.

Alice and I were childhood friends in the 1940's. We were Agawam High School Cheerleaders in 1943 and cheered High School basketball and football games. We grew up in Feeding Hills and enjoyed wonderful, happy lives. I have many cherished memories.
