She enjoyed the simple things in life, and could often be found sitting on the patio taking in all nature had to offer, especially the hummingbirds. Alice was an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan, enjoyed watching NASCAR, playing cards and going camping. Above all, her family was her world whom she adored and was extremely proud of.
She was preceded in death by five brothers, Bob, Leon, Carl and Wayne Spicher and Michael Snyder; three sisters, Lorraine Dimon, Annabelle Coleman and Carolyn Schnoke.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 55 years, Larry Forney; her daughter Annalee Baim and her husband Matt, Lebanon; a granddaughter, Shanelle Wingert; a grandson, Nathan Paul. Numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
