A longtime resident of Omaha, Nebraska, Alicia was born in Manila, Philippines on April 28, 1936. In 1959, she graduated with a BSN from the University of the Philippines and married her beloved Agapito Lorenzo. She emigrated to the US in 1960, where she joined her husband and worked as a nurse. During this time, they lived in New York City, Albany, New York, and Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Together they had 3 children, Donna, and Nicholas in Albany, and Consuelo in Montreal. The family moved to Omaha in 1968 where Agapito enjoyed a long career as a neurologist, and she later returned to nursing at Jennie Edmundson Hospital in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Alicia was an active parishioner at St. Thomas More Catholic Church, where she participated in the Ladies Guild and many other volunteer activities over the years.
