She was lifelong member of Elmo Lutheran Church. Alice was known for making lefse, krumkake, and buckles. She also baked many anniversary and wedding cakes. She also loved growing flowers and canning anything she grew in her garden.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; and 11 brothers and sisters, Richard (Evelyn) Faehnrich, Dulce (Melvin) Lommen, Louis “Mix” (Dorothy) Faehnrich, Pauline (Herman) Schultz, Iris Faehnrich, Mavis (Clifford) Mullen, Sylvia (Millard) Aldrich, Charmoine (Rueben) Westad, Doris (Melvin) Haag, William (Virginia) Faehnrich, and Maurice (Shirley) Faehnrich.
