Alice was born on July 25, 1918 as the first child to Michael Ciskowski and Rose Svacha Ciskowski on a farm 1 mile north of Clyde, OK. She was raised in the Clyde area.

She moved to Ponca City in May 2012. Alice was a member of St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Blackwell and a member of the Altar Society there. She also was formerly active in the Blackwell Saddle Club . Alice enjoyed spending her spare time in the garden, tending to her lovely flowers. Her lemon pies and divinity candy were well appreciated by those fortunate enough to have sampled them. She also sewed dresses for her granddaughter.
