Alice Wilson Bonnet passed away in her home on Sunday September 4, 2011. She was the proud mother of William and Mary Elizabeth Bonnet of Dalton, MA. She loved her children very much, and was proud of their accomplishments. She joins her predeceased parents and former husband Peter Alan Bonnet. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, she was the daughter of Commander and Mrs. James Arthur Wilson Jr., USN Submarine Force, Ret. Upon her father's retirement from the United States Navy, her family moved to Dalton where she attended Wahconah Regional High School, graduating in 1977. In 1981, Alice received a Bachelor of Science degree at the UMASS Isenberg School of Business where she was a member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority.

She began her career at Stone and Webster of Boston and later returned home to continue her profession at General Dynamics of Pittsfield and Crane & Company of Dalton. As a "Navy brat," Alice had the opportunity to meet many people through which she created lifelong friendships. She was a great friend and took pride in caring for these friendships.

She was a deeply spiritual woman and a parishioner of St. Mark Roman Catholic Church, where she taught CCD for many years. As a proud Irish woman, she had a keen interest in the family's genealogical roots, including her Native American heritage. Her family was often amazed by the information she collected. She enjoyed camping in Vermont, biking on Long Island, and boating on the Hudson. Along with Billy and Mary, she leaves her beloved sister, Denise Allain, her husband David, and their children Matt and Ali of Worcester, MA. She also leaves her brother James A. Wilson III, his wife Beth, and their children Jim and Jen of Manitowoc, WI. In addition, she is survived by her cherished Aunt Claire of Natick, MA and many cousins.
