ART,LAURIE,LINDA and families..We miss her already!!! Thanks for allowing me to be with her the last iday..rest in peace DEAR FRIEND
To Arlenes family. I loved her like a sister. I keep wanting to call on the phone like we did so much this last year or so when she was iced in and so was I. I`m so glad I got to spend as much time as I did with her when the weather got better. We enjoyed just being together and gabbing. Also eating ice cream sundaes. Her main worry was about her family. She loved you all very much.
To Arlene’s family, Our condolences for the loss of Arlene. She will be missed.
May it be some consolation that in her last days we had many conversations and she would talk about how important her family was and how much help they were to her. It is hard to believe that when I brought her that malt and burger that it would be the last time I would see her. She was very special to the class of 57 and her gal pals and will be deeply missed.
Art, Linda and Laurie

To Arlene’s family – I had the pleasure of working with Arlene for over 20 years at ACEC. She was a wonderful lady and will be missed.
To all of Arlene’s Family – So sorry for your loss. Arlene was one of the nicest ladies I have had the pleasure of knowing for many years. May God be with you all. Dorothy (Reichhoff) Menck
