My deepest sympathies to Cousin Wally, Dave, Michael, and Sean and their families. Of all my aunts, your mom was my favorite even though I lived in PA, I always enjoyed our trips to Yonkers and her visits to E-town. My best vacation ever is when she and your dad took us all to Seaside Heights, NJ one Summer. The photo is when she and her brother, my Uncle Mike came to visit us and we went to a local winery. That visit I so enjoyed the time we sat around my sister, Gloria´s kitchen table and they both sharing many family stories....oh how I wish I had those recorded! Will be keeping you all in prayer for the Lord´s Comfort and Strength during this difficult time. LOVE YOU Aunt Sandy! Gail

My Sincere condolences on the passing of Alice. Alice was my Idle growing up & I was so very thankful to re-connect with her during my years of working at the "Beauty School" in Hyde Park. I am certain my parents were with Wally to greet her when she arrived in Heaven. May she rest in peace <3

My dearest Aunt Sandy,
You were the best Aunt, Mother, Sister, and friend.
I always looked up to you & Uncle Wally as your family was solid & mine was not growing up.
Living with you all showed me what a loving family was all about. The bonus was having 5 cousins that I cherished & were more like siblings to me. I loved when Uncle Wally would have me & the boys singing songs together. Man he had a great voice!
You are the last one of your siblings to not be here with us any longer - my Dad Mike was her older brother.
You are & will continue to be dearly missed.
Rest well dear Aunt, I love you.
Patti

Ken and Maureen want you to know how sorry we are to hear about your loss. Alice was Kens Aunt so he has lots of memories; times at the Jersey shore seem to come up often. I was fortunate to have Alice in my life too for a time. She made those family gatherings far more fun with her presence. Her generous nature made me feel she was my Aunt too. During CoVid 19 Lockdown we shared a nice conversation where we caught up for a brief time. She visited Belize with my Mom which was very special for me. She was a great friend to my Mom. I´m posting some photos I found. She was a beautiful woman! I´m glad you have had your Mom, Mother-in-law, Sister-in-law, Aunt, Grandma , Great Grandma, Friend for the many years you have!
