Alicia loved people and loved helping people. She would spend hours working with her Grandma Stella, at the church food pantry, making bags of food to hand out to people in need. Although her Grandma had a specific way to nutritionally pack the bags, Alicia would always add her special touch by making sure each bag would contain a special treat, usually candy.
To honor the memory of Alicia. who passed away at the age of 4, January 14th, 2001. Her Grandma Stella and Poppy Juan started a non-for profit food pantry called Alicia's House. Alicia's House will continue to feed hundreds of hungry families and each bag of food will contain Alicia's special loving touch.
