    Aunt Alice always reminded me that I was part Irish and to be proud of that. I can remember family gatherings at the farm and other family homes nearby in the 70’s and 80’s. My first job was packing tomatoes next door to Aunt Alice back in 1983 I believe. Aunt Alice would come over and make sure I wasn’t getting worked to hard. (I wasn’t) She was a great person and I will always remember her.
