Dear Stiles Family,

Please accept our deepest sympathy for your sad loss. Arlene was "salt of the earth" kind of people. She continued to give even when there was no more to give. She was there as a dear friend to our family during some very difficult times and for that we will always be in her debt. Just knowing her was an honor and a privilege. Remember, even though you cannot see her, Arlene will always be watching over her precious family.

Take Care and God Bless,
