Alice was born October 21, 1929 in Manitowoc, daughter of the late Elmer and Leona (Grady) Barnes. She attended St. Boniface Catholic Grade School, and graduated from Lincoln High School in 1947. On May 24, 1952, she married Robert J. Sheehy at St. Boniface Catholic Church in Manitowoc. Alice and Bob enjoyed many years traveling together, which included Ireland, Hawaii, Arizona and Florida.

Alice was a longtime member of the Altar Society and Homemakers of St. Pat's; longtime member of the VFW Auxiliary; and was always very generous to many charitable organizations. Alice enjoyed sewing, baking, doing craftwork, and her flower garden; she especially loved to read and watch/listen to Mother Angelica on EWTN.

In addition to her parents, and her husband, Bob, she was also preceded in death by her sister & brother-in-law, Mary Claire (Justin) Mullins; and three brothers-in-law & two sisters-in-law: Alfred (Joanne) Sheehy, Harold Sheehy, Patrick Sheehy, and Eileen (Charles) Bernier.
