Memories of Aunt Alice: 1972, I was four years old and met her for the first time. She took me shopping at Bloomingdale's, bought me a wardrobe to suit a princess, including a Raggedy Ann doll. At the apartment where she lived with Uncle Al, she let me take crayons and COLOR ON THE WALLS.
I'll never forget her. And while she was Sister Laura James, she hand-made my Baptismal gown out of lace, with shamrocks. My own daughter Madeleine was baptized in the gown Aunt Alice made. I loved her! --Paula Cavanaugh Carter
I remember her WILLINGLY undertaking flying her 19 year old niece and 14 year old nephew up to Long Island then driving us NINE HOURS (actually Uncle Al drove) across the state to surprise our dad (her brother) in Syracuse. She will be missed! --John Cavanaugh
