Alice was born in Laughlintown, PA and grew up in the Ligonier Valley area. She attended The Valley School and Ligonier High School and went on to complete nurses training at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. Alice married Joe Winering of Philadelphia in 1959 and they raised three children there until they moved to Willingboro, NJ in 1969. Once settled in Willing-boro Joe continued to work for the Frankford Arsenal and Alice began working nights at Ranco-cas Valley Hospital, where she stayed during the many ownership transitions the hospital experi-enced over the years. Close to the end of her career, she worked with cancer patients and new mothers. Alice loved and served at Saint Paul United Methodist Church in Willingboro where she partici-pated in the JOY Circle and United Methodist Women. She was a Girl Scout Leader for many years and enjoyed cake decorating for weddings and other celebrations in the family. Alice and her family centered vacations around her extended Smith family reunions, that took place every two years, visiting locations all over the country. Over the last several years Alice began taking in pets that needed a home, often in their later years. This was just one of the many causes that she supported throughout her life. Known for her calm presence, caring smile, and generous nature, Alice’s memory will be cherished by all those she touched during her lifetime.
