    To Sister Alice’s family and the Daughters of the Holy Spirit,

    It’s very sad to hear of Sister Alices passing. She was always such a happy, lively women. She was my sixth grade teacher at St. Marys in Jewett City.
    I remeber that she could catch a baseball better than any of us. I have such fond memories of her.
    Our thouhgts and prayers are with her family, Sister Lorraine, Sister Ferdinand and all of the sisters that knew her.

    With deepest sympathies,

    Robert Derusha &
    Lucille Derusha

    To my Aunt Alice’s religious family, please accept my deepest sympathy. Thank you for taking care of her especially since her return to Putnam. Although she was closest to you in her later years, she was very close to me and my family throughout my lifetime. She was the coolest Aunt! She could throw a football or baseball that would burn when you caught it! She was very strong and quite the ‘handyperson’. I will never forget the numerous Christmas’ of giving her hand tools and power tools and you would think we had given her a million dollars! And when her tool box was full we helped her fill her leisure time with her new hobby of puzzles. The more difficult the puzzle – the more fun she had! She especially loved the 3D Castle – it was amazing! She was not only fun (and funny) she was caring. She loved my kids. I had to make sure she had the latest pictures to give her whenever I saw her. Aunt Alice was a great help to the family when my mother (one of her 11 siblings) was ill. The last time I saw her was at her Jubilee celebration in Tupper Lake before she went to Putnam. She remembered the face but the name escaped her. I knew then she was slipping away.
    I will remember her always and deeply miss her.
    Karen
