She loved getting together with her friends and family, dancing, cooking, laughing, and enjoying life together. She had a rare gift, no matter how busy life got, Alicia always made time for you. A call, a coffee, a walk, she carved out space because to her, people were what mattered most.
Alicia possessed a very creative and brilliant mind; she was an award-winning animator and had her own art gallery in Saint John. She expressed herself through painting, drawing, working with clay, crocheting, and writing poetry, or sci-fi short stories. Alicia was extremely imaginative and brilliant with her words; she could create entire new worlds in her stories and touch your heart with her poems.

Alicia was also known for her love of nature and enjoyed hiking. and camping getting her hands in the dirt.
