Emily M. Alcorn

Passed away on Saturday, May 28, 2022 at the age of 88.  Preceded in death by her husband, Charles Alcorn; her sisters, Gloria Gardner, Ann Cheever, Lillian Gliszinski, Dorothy Dusha and her brother, Edward Bleyer.  Loving mother of Brenda (Kirk) Killips.  Proud grandmother of John Michael (Kristine) Killips and Connie (Brett) Peterson.  Cherished great-grandmother of Anna and Hunter Killips and Aubrey, Madalynn, Jakob, Hollie and Jillian Peterson.  Dear sister of  Louise Carsen and Florence (Buzz) Carros.  Further survived by many other relatives and friends.

Emily, along with her husband, Charles, was the proud owner of Alcorn’s Antiques and Alcorn’s Beer and Liquor for many years in West Allis.

She loved to play Scrabble, cards and competed daily from her spot at home on the Price is Right, Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune. Every year Emily, “the bookie,” delighted in placing “bets” for the triple crown horse races.

Her greatest  joy was being with her family. She adored her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Emily was a devout Catholic. Her faith was strong and she is surely with her Lord at this time.
