Alene was always on the go at PRM. She had a knack for cleaning things and she loved to collect flowers and books. She grinned ear to ear when engaged in a conversation. She could be heard humming to herself and admiring beautiful things. I'll miss that mischievous grin of hers. Ninety-six years...wow! Much love to the family.
