Alane Georgia Perkins

Alane Georgia Perkins, 78, of Brattleboro, died Sunday, April 2, 2023 at home, following a long courageous battle with cancer.

She was born in Norwalk, CT on Dec. 25, 1944, the daughter of Aubrey Lloyd and Byllee Lloyd Gould. She was a graduate of Norwalk High school class of 1962. After graduating, she attended University of Connecticut.

Alane began her career in finance at Country Journal magazine where she spent 10 year, until she partnered to start Mortgage Service Center as the Vice President of Loan Administration. The company was eventually sold to Chittenden Bank where she served as the Vice President of Loan Servicing until she retired to pursue her love of travelling. Alane was always looking forward to her next destination; from England, Germany, Australia, Mexico, and Italy, to the West coast of the U.S. and several islands, just to name a few. Her thirst for adventure was endless.

Alane had a true passion for gardening, and often had people drive by her home to admire her perennial gardens. Her greatest joys in life were spending time with family and friends, sitting by the ocean, going to the theater, travelling in her camper and golfing. She always put others first and lived every moment to its fullest, making a lasting impression on all those that had the pleasure of knowing her. Alane was a pillar of strength and compassion who will never be forgotten.

Alane is survived by her fiancé Ralph Halvorsen of Hampton, NH, her two daughters, Lorin Young and husband Colin of Brattleboro, VT; Kellee Enos and her companion David Barden of Raleigh, NC; her sister Jean Casceillo and husband David of Chesterfield, NH; her brother Jim Lloyd and wife Dorothy of Atlanta, GA; her sister Barbara Foreit of Norwalk, CT; her sister Pat Brovender of Strafford, CT; her sister Audrey Buckner of Sun City Center, FL; granddaughters Miranda McLoughlin of Brattleboro, VT, Meghan Baldinelli of Keene, NH and Colleen Young of Swanzey, NH and 4 great grandchildren.

She was predeceased by her husband Irving Perkins, son Gregg Enos and brother Donald Lloyd.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, April 21^st, at 3 p.m., at the Ker Phaneuf Funeral Home, 57 High Street, Brattleboro, VT, followed by a celebration of life gathering at the Brattleboro Country Club.
