We recently lost a priceless gem with the passing of long-time Alix resident, Alice Whitfield.
Alice was very involved in the community throughout the numerous years that she lived here. The list of organizations that Alice made her distinctive mark on during her lifetime include: the Arena, Curling Club, Golf Club, Public Library, Drop In Centre, Girl Guides, Alix Home and School, the Seniors’ Lodge, the Chamber of Commerce, Alix Wagon Wheel Museum, Sincerity Rebekah Lodge and her church. As well as being a business owner with her husband in their earlier years in Alix, Alice had touched the true heart of Alix. It was only in the most recent of years that she slowed down and did not take such an active role in the community events, but rest assured, Alice still had a hand in what was going on!
Alice put down roots in this community, and those roots ran deep. She was able to literally watch generations grow up and start families of their own. A genuinely friendly lady, Alice had too many friends to count. She was always able to keep tabs on those who were her friends, even if she did not see them often. She will definitely be missed. May the rich legacy which Alice has left all of us continue to grow.
Also, I’d like to say a big thank you to the helpful gentleman with the snowblower who very nicely helped me get my car unstuck last weekend.
