Obituary
Alice Amanda Summers, born January 3, 1941, passed peacefully on November 13, 2025, in Taylor, Michigan, at the age of 84. Alice was a strong independent woman and proud member of the UAW Local 735. She retired after 35 years of dedication to GM. A life well-lived, she touched the hearts of many through her warmth and dedication to her family and friends.
Alice cherished the simple joys of life: the aroma of a home-cooked meal, the satisfaction of mowing her lawn on her riding lawn mower, the beauty of a blooming garden, the laughter shared with loved ones and most of all being Grandma. Her generous spirit and strong welcoming nature will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to know her.
She is preceded in death by her beloved father George Taylor, mother Virginia McDevitt, son Kenneth Ray Summers Jr., son Kenneth Rodney Summers, son in law Mark Corey Sr, granddaughter Melissa Pitock and Katie Corey, and siblings George Taylor, Virginia Box, Judy Wynn, David Taylor, and Bonnie McCammon and beloved friend Mary (Kathy) Johnson.
