Eric,

It is hard to lose someone you love, but even harder when that person is your mother. I know that lost because of my mother's death recently. I understand your pain and know that remembering her love for you will make it easier. It is one year since you felt her hugs but you will be together again in Heaven.
Fondly,
Carol, Bob Ryan and Adam McMahon

Dear Steve and family: John and I are devastated to hear of Arlene's passing in late June. We had only visited with you a short time before up at the lake. You and Arlene were so excited with the new lawn and sprinkler system and were getting ready for the whole family to come over on the 4th.
Jim Melchionda stopped by today and told us about Arlene. Although we don't see each other often, we have shared the peninsula for 25 plus years, shared the same "local" concerns and were vigilant watchdogs of any strange activity, and always enjoyed an annual "kibbitz" about kids, family and potential new neighbors.
Our hearts break for you, and we have no words to express our sadness. If we can help with anything at the lake or anthing at all, please let us know.

Dear Steve and your family,
I was very saddened yesterday to learn of Arlene's passing. I was one of her childhood friends and neighbors growing up and going to school together in Malden and always remembered her wonderful kindness and compassion - Arelene was such a gracious person. I will also always remember how kind she was to her mother, Ann and to her younger brothers Larry and Ben.

Please accept my deepest sympathies -

I will always remember Aunt Arlene's hugs and kisses. The best hugger of all time, the feeling of her hands on my face and the sense that everything was going to be okay gave me peace. The pain we are all feeling will never completely subside. However, Aunt Arlene's strength, resolution, and love will never be forgotten. You will always be in my heart and thoughts. You will forever be the best! I love you to no end and will forever miss our calls.

Dear Steve,
We were so sad to hear about Arlene's passing. You and Arlene were the first peole we met when we moved to St. Pete 37 years ago. Remember we rented the same house after you on 63rd Ave. South. Arlene answered all my "St Pete" questions and we became friends.
Our thoughts and deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Dear Feingold Family,
Alyssa and I were shocked and very saddened by the sudden passing of cousin Arlene. We will never forget her exuberance at family get togethers and Jo-El meetings. I especially enjoyed having Arlene as my team captain on the scavenger hunt at our Family reunion several years ago. Arlene will be deeply missed by all those who knew her, and we will cherish the memories of times spent with her. Please know you are all in our thoughts at this difficult time.

Dear Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Arlene. She like so many of our family has been taken too young. My thoughts are with you.

in the most unlikely of places - an airport bathroom - arlene gave me her heart -
my father had just died, and she consoled me in a way no one else could - because, with arlene, when she said something, there was never a shred of doubt that she meant it -
she cared - she always cared - and she always let you know about it - she had an ocean of love in her, and a gift for candor so that you couldn't help but love her back -
arlene had that gift - and she was a gift -
missing her - and loving you all -

It is with great sadness that I write these words of condolence. Arlene & I both lived on Hill Street so I'm not sure how long we have know each other. Probably close to 60 years.
She was always there to listen and confide in. She was the first person I saw after my mother died over 47 years ago. I'll never forget her kindness. My sympathies go out to you Steve and your entire family.

To Steve and family - The shock & loss of losing Arlene is overwhelming. Perhaps I was one of her oldest friends - we started out in first grade in Faulkner School and stayed close girlfriends through Lincoln Jr. High and Malden High. We were mates in color wars in summer camp. Her parents always welcomed me into their beautiful home, just a few blocks from mine in Malden.

As we got older (her birthday is two months from mine) we stayed in touch in a close sisterly way. She was always there to listen to my goings-on and happenings, as I to hers.

She visited me once in New York and in San Francisco a few years ago, and I was to come to New Hampshire this August to be with her and family.

Arl, how can you suddenly be gone?

I'll miss your nagging me to come to high school reunions, the news of classmates' goings-on, and our tradition of yearly birthday cards. You'll always be in my heart.
After over 60 years, it'll never be any other way. I miss you deeply already.

Dear Steve and Family,

Barbara and I want to extend our profound condolences to you. Arlene was a wonderful friend and although we hadn't seen much of you since you left St. Petersburg, our affection for you both was always the highest. Arlene will be terribly missed by her family and also her friends.

Love, Barbara and Jerry Colen

We are still in shock and disbelief.
We have lost a dear, dear friend who
we have simply considered an extension of our own family, spanning more decades than the Feingolds or we care to remember.

However, it cannot go unsaid what a joy for life, upbeat, inspiring, caring, genuine person Arlene was . . . and will continue to live on in our hearts and memories...bigger than life!

In all our years of genuine friendship, despite the miles that separated us . . . we always picked up where we left off -- a seamless friendship with unconditional, mutual love and respect.

The sun is shining in Florida today where we first met the Feingolds,
but our hearts are shrouded in clouds.

We never would set foot in New England without a kibbitz visit with
Arlene and Steve.

Our friendship has enriched our lives and we will carry the fondest, most loving memories of a dear, genuine person -- Arlene (Weiner) Feingold --
to our own graves!

Her sudden untimely departure has left us all with a terrible void.
She was one of a kind and shall remain as such.

Friends like the Feingolds are very few and far between.

Though a thousand miles, or more,
separate us . . . we ARE with you
during this most sad of occasions,
as we were during many, many
joyous shared milestones.

May you bring equal joy, love and good cheer to all you encounter,
Arlene in your "new home."
Please save a place at the table for the rest of us. We have not shared our last laugh and we cannot say
"goodbye."

She treated me like a son. I got my first real look at how loving a family can be when I was 12 years old and spent a lot of time with the Feingold family when they lived in Florida. Mrs. Feingold was so good to me and always expressed a genuine love towards me. I will never forget that. Now I am 43 and very saddened by the news of her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with her family, whom I still care for very much. May the Lord comfort you and give you peace. With love, Dion

To the Feingold and Weiner Families. I was shocked and saddened to hear of this great loss. I sat on the Board of Temple Beth Shalom this last year with Arlene. We shared whispers and laughs and I will miss that so much this year. At the end of every Board meeting, she would always approach anyone who had an issue and say "Hunny, if there is anything I can do to help...just let me know." This was the way she was. When I lost my parents last year, she was very comforting and supportive to me. Whenever I saw her, she always took the time to ask how I was doing. She was a wonderful woman and I am only sorry we knew each other for just one short year. As she was here for me, I am here for you at this most difficult time. I will never forget her.

I worked with Arlene at the Gardner museum and will greatly miss her warmth and knowledge. She remains a wonderful influence and I will always have warm memories. The Gardner misses you, Arlene.

We are so deeply sorry to hear of Arlene's passing. It has sometime since we have been in touch. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. Her smile, warmth and keen wit will be remembered always.

I've know Arlene going back maybe 50 years. Harvey knew her even earlier in High School. She was such a lovely, upbeat and fun lady - a real class act - and will be terribly missed by the absolutely wonderful family she & Steve created.
