She married Salvador Lopez Vasquez in 1968 in Mexico and this union was blessed with seven children, of which the first born did not survive his infancy. They moved to the United States in the early 1970’s and were married until the 1990’s.

While married Alicia raised her older children in the San Joaquin Valley in California and later in the 1990’s she raised her youngest two boys in the Coachella Valley in California. In 2018 she relocated to Texas and was taken care of by her daughter, who moved in with her after she retired in 2022 to look after Alicia with the onset of her illness.
With the progression of Alicia's illness, she was moved in to assisted living. A short while later Alicia entered the hospice system of Southwestern Texas on September 24, 2025 and passed away on September 26, 2025, at approximately 11:17 PM, at the age of 76 years .
