Arlene "Dee Dee" Salvador

I can't believe that it's almost a year that I haven't heard that laugh..Miss you lots DD....XOXO..

From the moment that I met Arlene I knew she was one of those people that would have a lasting impression. Arlene, you have touched my life in the most positive way. I will never forget you.

To Arlene's family, nothing can ease the loss of a dear family member. Just know that Arlene will live on forever, as long as we remember her.

It is so hard to believe that Arlene has been gone a year. She was a great co-worker at CA. It was my honor and pleasure to get to know her. I just wish we would have had more time. She is missed

I am so touched by the kindness expressed by my sisters friends and coworkers. It is through these expressions that I can reflect on how proud I am to be Dee’s older brother.

I thought I would share the words I spoke at her funeral mass.


“All you need is love…love is all you need.”

We have come here today to say goodbye to my sister, Dee Dee. She would not want us to grieve, but instead, celebrate her life. When measured quantitatively, my sister’s life was all too...

Dee Dee, you meant more to me than I ever knew. I will live my life and my dreams with more courage now. May you hold court with the saints my beautiful friend.

My memories of DeeDee. She loved the Beatles, Karaoke singing, dancing to Ricki Martin "She Bangs", and a red mustang. She brightened up rooms, and was the life of the party. She was my friend, and I miss her dearly.

A shocking loss. In the brief time that I worked with her, Arlene was a presence in any room, bright and talented and not satisfied with doing anything in a small way.

We are shocked and saddened by this tragic news. We met Dee Dee when she moved next door to us on East Olive. How sad she had to leave this world so soon and in this way.

Dee Dee was my friend my music side kick,and a soul who made me laugh ,and now she's made me cry-I will miss you forever or at least till i see you again- send me down some tunes DD- Love and friendship Ray Luisi
