Alice had numerous interests in life. In the 1940’s, she and her sister Marcie, both avid tennis players, were 1-2 champs of Easthampton Women’s Tennis Singles Tournament. Loving the outdoors, she and her friends enjoyed taking long bike trips, even pedaling to Cape Cod-on a 3 speed!
She liked to garden, knit, read, play golf and go bowling. In later years, she enjoyed traveling the world, playing bocce and was a volunteer for the Special Olympics.
She was predeceased by her husband, Immer Mowry Cook and by two brothers and a sister. She is survived by two children, Immer M. Cook and Abby Arnould, husband Josef, all of Easthampton, and by a sister, Norma, and several nieces and nephews.
