After marriage, she and William farmed in Rosholt until they moved to Wausau in 1956. Alice was a homemaker. She enjoyed taking care of her home and family more than anything. She enjoyed baking, cooking, sewing, knitting and gardening. Her blueberry cheesecake, rolled buns, pierogies, potato salad and chicken dumpling soup were just some of the family's favorites. When it came to sewing, there was nothing she could not make. She also worked with William helping him remodel homes. The flowers that she grew and that adorned the living room windows for years, thrived from their monthly drink of beer. Alice liked to dance and sing and spent many hours in prayer.In their earlier years, when the children were still of school age, Alice and William took them on long vacations every summer. Many fun weekends were also spent at the family cottage near Crandon.The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11:00 a.m. Monday, August 28, 2017 at The Church of the Holy Name of Jesus, Wausau.
