ROME – Born in Waterbury, Conn. on Nov. 26, 1927, Alice was the eldest daughter of Guy and Pearl Wentworth. She passed at her daughter’s home with family at her side on Aug. 17, 2022.

Known to so many as Nana, she spent her life caring for others. Children that she provided care for as infants became lifelong family members. Her passions included her pets, reading, and her extraordinary talent for handwork. Spending countless hours sewing, knitting, crocheting, and cross stitch; most of which became gifts for others.

Her kind heart and loving smile will be greatly missed. Heaven truly gained a most beautiful angel.
