I was really surprised to hear it this AM.
She has done quite a bit for Hilo, and she will be missed.
I remember a Sierra Club dinner event 14 or so years ago that she worked on.
I made my hubby promise to not say a word about building or bulldozing or anything like that --- turns out a person who shall remain nameless who is about 6'5 came up to my husband at our table and in a booming voice said "your suggestion of Roundup with a little diesel fuel in - that $hit really does work".** I was cringing but Alice whispered in my ear that we had all those kind in our families, and I laughed sheepishly. I will always remember that small kindness from her.
(**note - we have got my husband to be way way greener since then!)
