Syvlia Diane (George), Ronny (Yvonne), Mr. Roanell, Darryl and Nikkie: With each passing day, my prayer is that you will treasure in the memories that Mrs. Arleen left with each of you. She was a beautiful and supportive wife, a compassionate and caring mother, a loving and giving grandmother, and to us all...a dear friend. During all of the services you had, I learned even more about Mrs. Arleen and her lovely spirit. I was even more proud that she considered me a daughter. I know you will uphold her memory in each of the your hearts and cherish each precious moment you shared with her. Mrs. Arleen loved and cared for everyone, and she gave us a little piece of her kindness to dwell within our spirit. I will remember her forever. Again, may you find comfort in knowing 'to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord'. We will rejoice when we celebrate with her again.
With much love, I extend to each of you; Jesus Grace and Mercy will Bring Us Through!

Diane, Ms. Arlene will truly be missed. Not only was she a joy to be around with an infectious laugh but someone that I found comfort in, in my own walk. She definately taught me that regadless of what is placed in your path, to square my shoulders and tell my storm how big my God is. She taught me that when I am down to nothing, God is up to something! Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible. My God keep you and yours cradled in his tender love and care.
