Mary Alice was a member of the first graduating class of James M. Bennett High School in 1966, and graduated from Salisbury State College in 1978 with a degree in business. In her younger years, she helped her parents at their business, Brittingham’s Confectionary, and later worked in sales at Hutzler’s, Langrall’s Furniture, and most recently for 23 years at Johnny Janosik Furniture in Laurel, Delaware, where she was one of its most productive and valuable salespeople, retiring in 2012.
