Alice (Turner) Maher, 76, most recently of Guilford, formerly of Clayton, New Jersey, Flushing, New York, and Branford, passed away on April 26, at Yale-New Haven Hospital. She was surrounded by the love and support of her family.

Alice was born March 31, 1943, in Camden, New Jersey. She was the daughter of the late Ellis H. and Alma Turner and was married to the late Thomas J. Maher on Jan. 16, 1966.

She also enjoyed taking extended trips to see her family in Georgia, Florida, and New Jersey.
