Alice Ann (Wardell) Skibicki

     Alice went to meet her Maker after a short bout with cancer. Alice was a spirited, fun-loving and kind person with an easy laugh. She was deeply religious and very generous. Her sincere interest in others endeared her to many whom she was a friend, advisor and confidante.

     Alice was the loving wife of Ed Skibicki for 56 years while raising seven children and taking in many in need. Her primary interest was a complete dedication to her family, which resulted in a very tight knit group. She was an avid Eagles and Phillies fan. She traveled to Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, France, Italy, Canada, Mexico and the Islands. After her children were grown, Alice worked in the credit departments at BP, PNB and Diamond Oil Company. She is also survived by her children; Chris (Mary) Skibicki, Celia (Jimmy) Porter, Terry (Jeff) Pack, Nancy Cousins, Cathi (Tim) Durnan, Melissa (Bill) Tanzilli, Tim (Anne) Skibicki, 13 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren and her life-long friends: Pat Stearrett and Margaret Toomey. She was predeceased by her brother, Joseph Wardell.  Our sincere appreciation goes out to Intercoastal Hospice.

     A Memorial Mass will be offered in St. Elizabeth Church, Cedar and Clayton Streets, Wilmington, Delaware on Friday, June 7, 2013 at 11:30 am. Burial will be in the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery, Bear, Delaware at a later date and at the convenience of the family. The family will meet and greet friends, starting at 9:30 am, in St. Elizabeth Church on Friday morning.
