We are sad to report that Alice Foster, wife of former Dresden Town Supervisor, Francis “Zeke” Foster, and mother of former Dresden Town Supervisor, Sue Foster-Ives, died Saturday, April 18th. For those who didn’t know Alice Foster, she was a very kind and gentle person who was always interested in family and community.
We heard an endearing story about Alice which we pass along here. When she was young, during the winter, when Zeke Foster was courting her, he would snow shoe up Lake George from Huletts Landing, to Schwerdtfeger Mountain in Putnam to see her. As many may know, Zeke Foster was instrumental in establishing the Washington County Beach in Huletts.
We pass along the condolences of the entire Huletts Landing community to the Fosters.
