My condolences to the family and loved ones of Alice. My mom, Helen, was friends with her and they were part of a small group of women who had worked for the Meriden Board of Ed and who used to have lunch together every Wednesday at different local restaurants into their 90’s! My sister and I have many fond memories of Alice and the various activities in which she, Mom and the other BOE women participated. May Alice Rest in Peace.
Rest well Aunt Lui! We love you and give Dad a BIG hug for us
