Alice received her Associate Teaching Degree in 1934. She then received a BS in Education Degree from Kent State University; Kent, OH. in 1957. She then received her Master of Education Degree from Kent State University in 1959.
After she received her associates degree, she obtained a teaching job in East Liberty and helped her sisters go to college. She also taught elementary school at Roselle School in East Cleveland. Later after she completed her work at Kent State, she became a reading specialist and worked with the Spaulding Method to help disadvantaged children learn to read. She was a master teacher and a Jennings Scholar.
As an accomplished story teller, Allie could weave tales with great skill. In her teaching she used a flare for the dramatic to produce plays and pageants. One program chronicled the building of the Erie Cancel in which one student sang, "I'm going to Guild a bitch..."
Allie was the responsible child, looked after others, and took over maternal duties for her sick mother. She was the mainstay of the family for many years. She kept savings accounts for her nieces and nephews until graduation. Many football and basketball games were attended by her as if she was one of the parents.
She traveled extensively both in the US and abroad. She was an avid reader, seamstress, pianist, and singer. Allie attended the theatre and loved crossword puzzles.
She was a member of the Bedford Christian Church and served on the board as well as sang in the choir.[ColfaxDeutschlandPlatte.FBK.FTW]
