I too, have received countless cards from Alice at every holiday over a 14 
year period and maintained an email correspondence with her during the last 
few months. She was a great role model for many of us - with her warmth and 
energy and caring - even when her health had begun to deteriorate she 
maintained her sunny, positive approach to life. CAJE Music Network 
organization was always done with grace and Alice was at everyone's workshop 
supporting and encouraging. I am looking for the joyous photographs I have 
with Alice, Neil  Carole Rivel, myself and others doing a conga line - it 
might have been at Omanim B'Yachad a number of years ago.
It's hard to imagine not seeing her again - but anyone who knew her will 
always have a strong loving memory.
I think that the most amazing moment was when we all sang with Sam and Elliot 
Kleinmann held up the telephone so she could hear us - it was a poignant and 
moving farewell.
The Alice Weinstein Music Scholarship Memorial Fund is truly the best way to 
nonour her memory.
We were all privileged to have known her.
