Ace's Memorial

[acelightning2]

Ace spent much of her online time on Dreamwidth. Many she knew in this forum she had known for quite a while. While I suspect almost all of the folks from Dreamwidth will use the online event, you are more than welcome at the in-person event. The following is the invitation my son Alex created. (I’m Ray, Ace’s husband, and Ascenza is my daughter in-law).

Alice Marie Stewart, often known as "Ace Lightning" or "Purple Alice" died

on June 27th 2025. If you knew her in some way and wish to join us in

mourning her passing and celebrating her life you are invited to a memorial

in her honor to be held on Sunday September 7th from 2pm to 5pm at The

Ashokan Center (477 Beaverkill Rd, Olivebridge, NY 12461).

This celebration will include a

brief ritual followed by a period of reflection and storytelling and paying

tribute. A light lunch will be served.

In addition to the in-person memorial an additional online celebration will

be held the following week on Saturday September 13th at 2pm - 5pm. This

memorial will include a presentation of video highlights from the in-person

memorial as well as further time to reflect on and celebrate her life.

Finally a video summarizing both the in-person and online ceremonies and

sharing of memories will be placed online at a web location to be

determined.

Anyone interested in attending either the in-person or online memorials, or

Both, should RSVP (indicating which events you would like to attend) to:

MemorialForAceLightning@gmail.com <mailto:memorialforacelightning@gmail.com>

Further details will be sent to people who RSVP from that email account

(including any updates as well as the link to the online event and the

location of the final video)

Thanks,

Alex, Ray and Ascenza
