To Arlene's Family: My love and condolences to all of you. I remember all the good times we had at Euclid School PTA, the bowling league, and a "neighborhood cruise" we took to the Caribbean. Arlene was a special lady, full of joy and fun, and it was my pleasure to have known her.

September 4, 2014

Dear Kathy, Corrie, Lorrie and Ron, Judy and Pat . . . We were so very saddened to hear about the sudden passing of Arlene. She was always so much fun to be around, even during the toughest of times. We will miss her (and her wonderful sense of humor) very much. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I know that she would be telling us not to be sad, but to be happy and that she has reunited with all the family who passed before her. She and Ron are reunited . . . With love, Craig and Chris Carlson

Aunt Arlene was always so positive and whenever we spoke I always felt a smile in my heart. She was so very special to me and I am going to miss her. She has been reunited with Uncle Ronnie, Uncle Bob, my mom and my dad. My prayers to my cousins and may they feel peace and love during this very difficult time.
