She lived most of her life in the Norwood, Norfolk and Parishville area of St. Lawrence County in Northern New York.
As the mother of six children and the wife of a New York State Conservation Officer, Alice led a life full of excitement and unpredictable adventure.
When not caring for her family, which she did daily, Alice, a devout Catholic and communicant of Church of the Visitation in Norfolk, spent much time at church activities with family and friends.
She enjoyed having coffee and sharing stories of all the latest happenings her life and the lives of those around her.
She also taught religious education and was a member of the RCIA team for many years.
A soft-spoken woman, Alice lived her life with quiet dignity, but she also enjoyed a funny story and a good laugh at family gatherings.
She was also quick to embrace her loved ones with warm and meaningful hugs.
In her later years, Alice lived at the Farrar Home in Malone, enjoying arts and crafts and music activities, and visits from her children and grandchildren.
Alice was content to let others shine.
She always put the needs of family of other above her own.
She was a champion of the underdog to her last day.
She respected family, friends and strangers alike, treating everyone with kindness and understanding.
Survivors include one brother of Star Lake; three sisters, all of Norfolk. Her six children, ten grandchildren, several great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews also survive.
She was predeceased by her husband of 49 years, Richard King, in 2008; a son-in-law, Anthony Bailey of Malone in 2012; her parents John and Myrtle Babbitt Davey; brothers Paul Davey, John Davey, Carl Davey and sister Theresa Lindsey and siblings in Laws Bernard King, Beverly & Haig Avadikian, Dawn LaBarge, Alan Woodall.
