Alice was a very special lady, and a devout Catholic. From the time she was born, as a leap year baby, she was an active child who loved to roller-skate, bowl and play ball. She was musically talented, playing accordion and guitar, and played cello in the Regina Symphony Orchestra. Alice also loved to dance and passed on that love to her family. Her time working at the Royal Bank was a source of pride. She was also proud of being a CWL member for over 65 years. Alice truly enjoyed giving of her time and talents, especially entertaining guests. She enjoyed cooking and baking for others, and talking and listening to people. The food she served was always phenomenal, and her home was an open and welcoming place. She loved spending time with her children and grandchildren, and beamed with pride while attending their dancing, sporting, musical and religious events. Those who knew her will greatly miss this very special mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, sister and friend. Funeral Mass will be held at Resurrection R.C. Church, 3155 Windsor Park Road, Regina, SK, on Wednesday February 24, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. with Father Stephen Bill officiating. Interment in Riverside Memorial Park. Flowers most gratefully declined.
