One of the best memories I have of Aunt Alice will always be her big smile. In my experience, she could always brighten any room as soon as she entered with just one smile. I will miss her. Love, Barbie.

In the Bible, Proverbs 31:10 states, "Who can find a virtuous women? for her price is far above rubies." That is what my Aunt Alice was, She was the most caring, loving, giving person this side of heaven. Her spirit will always be with us. Many prayers go up for the family. Love and Prayers, Patty

So VERY sorry to hear of Mrs. Borkowski’s passing... My mom Marion and she were very good friends from the time we lived nearby at 224 Pettebone... She was always a very generous woman and I remember visiting her and her family (including Babci) during the 60s and early 70s... May she rest now and her family find comfort in the love she gave to all.
