Alyce B Brocail

Alyce B. Brocail, 93, of Pueblo, CO., formerly of Curwensville, PA., passed away July 3, 2014. Alyce was born on August 16, 1920, in Curtin, PA. Preceded in death by husband, Charles, parents, Clark and Bella Beaty; siblings, Paul (Nellie) Beaty, Kenneth (Ruth) Beaty, Roy (Jane) Beaty, Violet (James) Patton, and Mary (Jonathan) Cadman. Survived by sons, Jerry Brocail of Cedar Knolls, NJ and Ron (Evelyn) Brocail of Pueblo West; grandchildren, Christine (Jon) Frost of Garrison, ND., Douglas (Lisa) Brocail of Missouri City, TX, Scott (Marla Webb) Brocail of Fayetteville AR., Megan Brocail of Long Valley, NJ, and Shanna (Dan) Truffini of Stirling, NJ; great-grandchildren, Cassie Frost of Casper, WY, Taylor Brocail of Bryan, TX, McKinzie Brocail of LaPorte, TX, Caitlyn and Erin Frost of Canyon, TX, Eric Frost of Garrison, ND, Madisyne, Camdyn, and Parker Brocail of Missouri City, TX., Anna and Aidan Truffini of Stirling, NJ. Alyce was an avid and knowledgeable sports fan. Though she and her family left Pennsylvania for Colorado more than 50 years ago (1962), she never lost her fervent loyalty for her Pittsburgh Pirates and Steelers, able to name her favorite players by their nicknames. She and her husband, "Broke", followed, literally, their grandsons, Doug's and Scott's sports careers from Little League, high school, college and MLB, even allowing whatever team Doug played for to catch her attention on Sports Center. She once even received a 90th birthday wish on national TV by game announcers. She also was an active bowler until the age of 90. She was a devout Christian and a member of the New Life Bible Church and its women's Bible study group. The family would like to thank Stacy and Terri from Sangre de Cristo Hospice for all they did for Mom. Special love and thanks goes out to Alyce's sister-in-Christ and best friend, Mary Farr, for all the support she gave Mom and the rest of us during her final days. You are truly a blessing. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held at 11:00a.m on Saturday, July 12, 2014, at New Life Bible Church, 2320 Prairie Ave., Pueblo, CO. Donations can be made to New Life Bible Church or Sangre de Cristo Hospice through the funeral home. Online condolence www.adrian-comer.com
