Dear Bruce, Linda and the rest of Arlene's family.

I worked with your mother for many years at Crabtree and Evelyn in Tamarac Square. Arlene was wonderful and kind to work with and we had such a good time and many laughs together. She was amazing and could out work me any day.

When she moved to Wolhurst I still kept in touch, but unfortunately lost track of her after that. I was at Wolhurst just the other day and asked friends there if they knew of her but they did not. I had been thinking of her lately and wondering if she was still in Colorado. I am very happy to hear that she had a good and full life. Arlene was a joy to know and she will be missed. Wished I had been better at keeping in touch with her.

Thank You so much for calling me to let me know of her passing. May you keep loving memories of Arlene in your heart as the years pass. I know I will.
Love
Laurie Denhalter

I saw Arlene a couple years ago when I visited Galilee. She was her same usual cheerful self. I was a neighbor of hers for many years and she was my first Sunday School teacher when I moved from No Dak to Denver when I was 11. My mother, Ferne Cutler, and Arlene were great friends. I am happy she had such a long joyful life. I will attend her services on Friday. She was a blessing to so many.... Connie (Cutler) Wyatt

Dear Bruce, Linda and families, certainly sorry to hear about Arlene's death. She was a very committed Christian woman and we enjoyed knowing her all these years at Galilee Baptist Church. She will be missed but blessed in the presence of her Lord. God Bless you. Bill & Charlene Cheyne
