Alice Mikulich was born October 7, 1928 at home, in Traunik, Michigan to Louis Mikulich and Frances (Bartol) Mikulich and grew up in a small town in her beloved Upper Peninsula, which she left to attend Marygrove College and then the University of Michigan.

Alice adored singing and was a past member of the U of M Choral Union, had numerous leads in Community Theater, especially enjoying Gilbert and Sullivan productions, and was her church soloist for three decades.

In addition, Alice Fisher was a fine athlete, an A level tennis player who competed in the Michigan and National Senior Olympics. She loved to play golf and had a hole in one, and began water-color painting in retirement.
