Richard & Family Condolences and prayers for you all. May your cherished memories of Arlene bring you comfort. My fondest memory of her was her beautiful smile, always welcoming and gracious.

I met Arlene, actually Mrs. Havel to me, when I taught Stephanie and Derek at Notre Dame Academy. She was an involved parent and always wanted to make the school a better place for her children and those to come. She spent hours working in the school library. I enjoyed chatting with her.

I am so sorry to hear of Arlene´s passing. Although through a number of years my times with Arlene were short, professional in nature, I will always remember a kind beautiful lady.

Dear Richard, deep sense of loss at this news and feeling of sympathy for you, and all of your family, whose lives were launched, touched and enhanced by Arlene's love and motherhood. My hope is that your grieving will turn, in time, to a deserved celebration of this very special and beautiful person who life was an example to all who knew her. With Love, Jack

In 1963, I moved to Santa Monica from Phoenix. I loved attending St. Monica´s High School where I first met both Arlene and Richard.

Arlene was one of a kind. Her kindness, generosity, intelligence, and joy enriched me, and, I suspect all that knew her. Heartfelt condolences to Richard, Stephanie, Derek and the rest of her wonderful family. The Beard family.
