She also enjoyed skiing and one of her and her son's most memorable trips was to Austria and skiing a 13,000 foot glacier. One of her favorite places was the State Park in Ludington.

Later in her retirement, she and Ray moved back to Ludington, where they enjoyed domestic and international travel, as well as fly fishing.

Alice is survived by her husband Ray Galinski and family, and son Brian Jackson. She also leaves behind many lifelong friends whom Alice considered to be family.
