Alice and Tony lived in Des Plaines and on Milwaukee Ave. in Chicago before moving to Rolling Meadows in 1962. From 1968 to April of 1995, they lived in Hanover Park before moving to Sun City, Arizona.While in Hanover Park, she enjoyed bingo, the pool in their backyard and block parties with many neighbors and friends.
Alice also deepened her faith through her home Bible Study Group with the ladies and prayed for her family everyday. She loved playing cards with her family and enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Her favorite holiday was Thanksgiving because of the cooking and the Macy's Day Parade. The colors and decorations provided her love for Christmas where she was passionate about saying "Merry Christmas," because Christ is the Reason for the Season.
They retired to Arizona in 1995, where Alice enjoyed God's beauty in the mountains, wildlife, greenery and beautiful sunsets. Her passion was planting flowers for the colors and beauty.
Mom and Dad had a lot of fun with family and friends, including the Dwyers, Panicuccis, Fredericks, Clines and many others. Much of her enjoyment in Arizona included playing bingo, canasta and cards. They went out every Thursday for pizza and bring your own wine. They also have a wonderful church family through South Peoria Baptist Church.
They spent their 50th and 51st anniversaries on cruises of the Hawaiian Islands where they admired God's beauty of the island from the comfort of their balcony room. Many pictures were taken of the scenery, especially the flowers. They celebrated their 57th Anniversary on October 4, 2015.
On October 6th, with her husband, three children and daughter-in-law by her side, she entered eternity peacefully as we sang her favorite gospel song "In the Garden."
Forever in our hearts. You will be deeply and tenderly missed.
