Alene Stokes

Alene Stokes, 83, of Boise, passed away on Saturday, February 18, 2012, in a local care center. Alene was born on July 29, 1928, in Weiser, Idaho, to Virgil Hubert Battershell and Mary Emma Warfield Battershell. She graduated from Midvale High School in 1946. Alene married James Darrel Stokes, on April 6, 1947, in Midvale. Alene and Darrel moved to Boise, where they lived until 1978 when business relocated them to Vancouver, WA. Upon retirement, they moved back to Boise to be closer to family. She was a devoted wife and mother, and gave everything to her family. She had a deep inner faith in The Lord, and fought her illness with courageous strength and love for God and her family. She was truly a kind and beautiful person and will be greatly missed.

Alene was preceded in death by her husband Darrel Stokes in 1995. She is survived by her children, Larry Stokes (Cindy Stokes), of Boise, Kathy Milliron (Rick Milliron) of Eagle, and Dr. Karen Stokes (John Fahrer) of Portland, OR; grandchildren, Eric Milliron of Nampa, Erin Miller of Portland, OR, Bradley Stokes of Moscow, ID, and Bryan Stokes, of Boise; and her brother Virgil Verlin Battershell of Elk Grove, CA.
