ST. MARYS — Alice L. Suennen, 78, died 7:29 a.m. Friday December 17, 2021 at Vancrest of St. Marys.

She was a graduate of Lima Central Catholic High School (Class of 1961). During the last four years, she looked forward to a monthly meal with the "Lunch Bunch" with classmates from LCC.

She had worked as a waitress and manager of various restaurants and truck stops. In her later years, she enjoyed working part-time at a convenience store. Never knowing a stranger, she loved meeting new people and making new friends. Her nickname of "Trouble" was appropriate and well-deserved.

She was a member of Holy Rosary Catholic Church in St. Marys.

Alice was a hard-worker and enjoyed making new acquaintances wherever she went.

Services are scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m. Thursday December 23, 2021 at the Miller Long & Folk Funeral Home 314 W. High Street in St. Marys. Deacon Martin Brown will officiate the services.
