Arlene and I worked together for about four years in the mid-80s. She was kind, fun-loving and a joy to be in the company of. It was especially fun when she and Kathleen Grogan were together in the office. We were all so excited for them to have the flower shop, but sorry for them to leave the practice. I think of her often.
