Winston, Alyce K, 96, formerly of Lynbrook, died peacefully in her sleep on Aug. 29, 2006 at Tanglewood's Memory Garden, where she had been a resident since August of 2004. She was born on April 30, 1910 in Norristown, PA, the daughter of the late Jacob and Bessie Margot Karpel and lived most of her life on Long Island with her husband, Murray, following their marriage in June of 1933. He predeceased her in February of 1986.

Alyce is survived by her son, Lawrence J. (Sally) Winston of Shelter Island Heights, Long Island, and Bonita Springs, FL.; three granddaughters: Deborah W. (Dean) Weaver of Jamestown, Donna A. Winston of New York City and Deirdre A. (Christopher) O'Donnell of Rye. She was also the proud great-grandmother of Danielle, Drew and Douglas Weaver of Jamestown and Morgan and Matthew O'Donnell of Rye.

Mrs. Winston was somewhat of a Renaissance woman being both a mother and working woman in an age where it was not a common occurrence. She worked for the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles for more than 35 years and managed two of the department's largest branches on Long Island before retiring.

Alyce was also very active in local politics on Long Island and received several awards for outstanding volunteer work from the Republican Party there. She often boasted of having met seven U.S. presidents and liked to say that Ronald Reagan was her favorite. Her community efforts included more than 20 years as an active volunteer at her local hospital on Long Island and during WWII, she volunteered her time to the American Red Cross, helping in fund raising and performing tasks for returning wounded troops. She was a very gregarious person and was extremely active in the Doe Club, the woman's auxiliary to the Elks Club, where her husband was also active. Alyce was almost the last survivor of a women's social group of 12 called The Mad Cappers that met socially for more than 40 years, being outlived only by a woman friend who is now 102 years old. She had a quick smile, friendly wit, and made friends quickly all of her life, even in her last years at Memory Garden. Those who knew her and her family will miss Alyce Winston greatly.

A private family graveside service was held on Sept. 1. The family suggests memorials be made to Memory Garden, 560 Fairmount Ave., Jamestown, NY, 14701. Local arrangements by Whitting Funeral Home, Glen Head.
