Aunt Alice will always be someone who was very special in my life growing up and as an adult. I have so many great memories of her, the most important are how to love unconditionally and the importance of being kind and generous in one´s life. The Trenary sisters, each of them unique in their own way, put a footprint on my life that I have and will always carry forward. I will always remember Aunt Alice with pride, love, laughter and her heartfelt smile. I learned so many life lessons from Aunt Alice and will always feel so fortunate to have known her. Rest in Peace Aunt Alice
