They lived in Menasha most of their married life. Alice loved to sit in the sun, boat, take Harley trips, ride in the corvette and especially travel to Hawaii and St. Maarten every year. She graduated from Iron River High School and worked for over 38 years in the Claims Department at Secura Insurance.

In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by her brother, Bud, and parents-in-law.

The Memorial Service for Alice will be held at 3:00 pm on Friday, January 29, 2016 at Wichmann Funeral Home-Laemmrich Chapel, 312 Milwaukee Street in Menasha.
