Alice Susanne Dalton

Sincere condolences to her family & her Barrie family Dax, Dave & Brett Jensen.
Rest In Peace Alice

Alice was a delight to know and I am grateful that I had that opportunity. She was a joy to be around and she loved hugging and being hugged. I will miss her so much as will all the people who interacted with her. Go safely, Alice.

Forever in my heart. One of the finest friends I’ve had in my life. Kind, talented, and generous of spirit to all who knew her. Her light will shine in the memories of those who were lucky enough to be part of her journey.

Words cannot describe the pain we feel at your passing. We were so proud of you and the strength you showed in the last 2 years. You taught us kindness, patience and compassion .We will forever be grateful for having you in our lives.
We had the honour of spending 11 years with you and we will hold those memories close to our hearts. You will forever be a part of our family.
We love you and miss you.
Dax, Dave Brett Jensen

Victor,Vickie, Lorne and Families
Sincere condolences on the loss of your beautiful daughter and sister.
She was a beautiful soul who touched everyone she met. All her Friends will cherish her memory
Forever.
The Jensen family

Alice and I met at the Art Club in Barrie. We made fast friends because she was so warm and friendly. We had recently had a holiday in Newfoundland and I was excited to tell her how much we loved the island especially its people. Alice never failed to live up to the generosity and kindness of the islanders. She always called me Miss Jennifer…not sure why but it made me feel special! We had birthdays one day apart so we would meet for lunch. She would always order macaroni and cheese with lobster…staying with her roots. She encouraged me in my art and even had some framed for an exhibition. I have three of her paintings and many cards she made especially for me. I will treasure them all. She was one unique person who will live on in my heart forever.

My condolences to all the family at this sad time.

Dax, I am so very sorry for your loss. You & Dave have endured more sadness than most. Remember the laughs, and the good times as they will bring you strength.

Alice was my mom’s friend for many years. She would send mom jokes on handmade cards. Alice was very talented and such a sweet person. God bless.

Alice, you are a dear soul who didn’t stay with us long enough. Thank you for sharing your talent and your light, your laughter and your sorrows with us. We will always remember you.

My most sincere condolences to the Dalton family. I met Alice through the Jensen’s 11 years ago. She was the most kind hearted and welcoming person. She spoke gently but her quick wit and sense of humour truly had me in tears laughing hysterically at the dinner table, and if I wasn’t quick my drinks would be coming out my nose! It was such a delight to be around her.  She was the most lovely person and I am so grateful to have gotten to know Alice and spend time with her.. Her art, storytelling, singer and playing guitar will be missed, but most importantly the space she held will feel empty too all who knew her..

I knew Alice when we were just kids very accomplished lady sorry for your loss

While I didn’t know Alice for very long, I worked with her on the HFAC team (arts & crafts Kempenfest) and am a fellow Barrie Art Club member. I knew her to be kind, helpful, and an incredible artist. I will miss her on the HFAC, and would like to send my heartfelt condolences to her family and others who were close to her.

Dear Alice will be remembered as a kind and caring person who was/is a blessing to this world. The people she touched with her kindness will be sure to pass it on and on. Her presence will be missed by many.

We’ll always remember Alice’s quirky smile and even quirkier Newfie accent, both of which we loved so much! Alice, you’ll be missed. Ralph, especially, will miss you because you’re the only person who called him “Handsome”.

So sorry to hear of Alice’s passing.Rest In Peace

Alice has been like family for more than a decade. We always enjoyed visiting with her. She was so kind, caring and generous. My kids both have paintings hanging on their bedroom wall that Alice made for them. She listened when my kids talked and painted something special that they were interested in. They will serve as a wonderful memory of her. I always remember how Alice would text or mail an encouraging note or a heartfelt thank you. She will be missed.

My sincere condolences to all family and friends of Alice

Our heartfelt condolences to you Vickie and the Dalton family for the loss of your beloved Alice.

Christine and Andy Keough

Many friends come into our lives, but only a few leave with their footprints on our hearts. You had a heart of gold, and one of the most caring and generous people with your time and love that I’ve ever met. You always had words of encouragement and of course the best sense of humour. You will be missed by so many, but that’s because you touched all of our hearts with so much love.

Alice and I met first at the Barrie Art Club and became long time friends. She was kind, funny and one fantastic painter. The five of us would go and paint (Dax, Barb, my Husband Peter , Rose and of course Alice. Balls fall’s was our last painting together. We stayed overnight and had a blast. Her humour and wit and kindness is something we will always remember.
She will be greatly missed!

Alice has been like a big sister to me for over a decade. She was kind, thoughtful and so very funny. I will miss opening my lunch everyday and seeing what surprise treat she had put in when I wasn’t looking. Maybe a chocolate bar or a note just reminding me to have a good day.
The world was just a better place with her in it. Forever walk peacefully my beautiful friend.
Love you and miss you.
Brett Jensen

Deepest condolences to all of Alice’s family, extended family and close friends. We will remember her as a beautiful bright light with her great smile, contagious laugh, wonderful sense of humour and her unique artistic talent. She will be missed. May she rest in peace.

Alice was a kind loving person. She showed her love of life through her art. Whenever we visited, Alice had a smile and had a love for my grandson’s as well. Alice always had a kind word and a smile for those around her. She will be missed.

Dear Alice,
All of us whose lives you touched will miss your warm-hearted thoughtfulness, your sparkling wit and those big hugs that felt so good. You often thanked us for our friendship but we want to thank you Alice, for being such a true friend. We send you peace and love as you start out on the next part of your journey.

I am so sad that Alice has passed from our lives. It is such a loss. She was a remarkable person – witty, warm and above all else, had a big heart full of love. I will never forget that big welcoming smile followed immediately by a big welcoming hug. She had a way of making every single person she encountered feel like a special friend and a person of worth. I am so glad to have a painting of hers to remind me of her and how special she was.In the first few raw weeks after the death of my mother, a friend of hers who was an Anglican nun told me in a very straightforward way “She is not very far away Gail”. I found that very comforting and I feel that Alice is not very far away. However, there is no denying that we all feel the loss of her physical presence – the smile, the humour and the wit liberally sprinkled with Newfie sayings! She loved the “News from Away” segments on Royal Canadian Air Farce! How wonderfully she used the gift of her life to make things better for all of us. Alice, you will never be forgotten and your memory will continue to enrich our lives. Thank you for all of it.
