Obituary for Alice Cabrera
Alice 'Ginger' M. (Curtis) Cabrera of Pittsfield went home to be with the Lord on Friday January 27th. Alice's faith was her rock as ''Rock of Ages'' was one of her favorite hymns. Alice was born in Sutton Vermont on June 25th, 1933 to Avery & Violet Irene (Clark) Curtis. She was the youngest of 4 children being predeceased by Geraldine, Herbert, & Wayne. Alice attended Lyndon Institute in Lyndon Center Vermont later on attending Holyoke Community College where she received an associate's degree in arts & medical secretarial. Later on she ran a large rooming house in Springfield Massachusetts where she resided for many years. Being a strong community supporter, she volunteered for many years on the local neighborhood council. Her greatest job in life was being a mother.
Some of Alice's favorite pastimes included spending time at the ocean, traveling, and arts & crafts. Always her favorite pastime, bragging on her children.
Alice's first husband, Donald M. Harris, predeceased her. She is survived by her husband of almost 60 years, Ignacio Cabrera of Springfield MA. She was predeceased by her oldest son, Kenneth Harris, and daughter, Linda (Harris) Cook.
