Today would have been your mom's 68th birthday. She was always speaking about her singing. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that she has been released from that crippled broken body and now has a perfect body and is singing in heavens angel band. she is gone but will never be forgotten.

I wish I could have made it to the family reunion this past summer to see you again. I will always remember coming to visit you in Ellsworth and visiting you in Florida. My memory that I remember the most is the time that I helped you decorate a cake. I went out and had my mom buy me a cake decorating kit so that I could do it myself. Thank you for the memories.

When family passes on it is very hard to accecpt, until you think about where they are going. God has sent another angel into heaven, and you now are in a better place, in peace. It was so nice to see you this summer in Lamoine, to see how happy you were just to be there with the family, it is a nice memory to stick in everyones mind. Myself, Kiairah, and soon to be, Aidriana love you and hope you are now in peace.

Hi,
My name is Sarah Carter, I am daughter of Harold and Suzette Carter. I remember my mother, my grandparents Velma and Merle Howard, and I went to visit down in Florida when I was young. We stayed with Arlene at her home in Lakeland, Florida. I remember her being so busy and she always ask me to french braid her hair before she went to work. I remember her being so happy and she was very wonderful person. I will miss her very much!!
