Alice Suennen
Alice L. Suennen, 78, St. Marys, died at 7:29 a.m. December 17, 2021 at Vancrest of St. Marys.

She was a graduate of Lima Central Catholic High School (Class of 1961). During the last four years, she looked forward to a monthly meal with the "Lunch Bunch" classmates from LCC. She had worked as a waitress and manager of various restaurants and truck stops. In her later years, she enjoyed working part-time at a convenience store. Never knowing a stranger, she loved meeting new people and making new friends. Her nickname of "Trouble" was appropriate and well-deserved. She was a member of Holy Rosary Catholic Church, St. Marys. Alice was a hard worker and enjoyed making new acquaintances wherever she went.
Services are scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m. Thursday December 23, 2021 at the Miller Long & Folk Funeral Home 314 W. High Street, St. Marys. Deacon Martin Brown will officiate.
