I only knew Arlene for a short time when my father moved in to the home she was in. She was a sweet soul and I always tried to take time to talk to her. I know she had stories to tell!! I will miss her, but I also know she was ready to move on and out of her pain. My prayers are with all of you. God Bless.
SO Sorry for your loss.Love to all of you.

My life as a child growing up would not have been the same without Aunt Arlene. I have so many bright and happy memories of her that will forever be in my heart. She will be missed.
Arlene was my loving sister and was a very special one. You will be greatly missed by all whose hearts you touched along the way. Love, Lilly
Our loving and wonderful sister, Arlene, is now in a better place. She had a very special place in our lives and hearts. We will forever miss her! Love, Jim & Janet
•God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered “come to me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
I remember the first time I heard this and how it comforted me, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I am so sorry I will not be able to attend the memorial service but I will be thinking of you.
