Arlene Joyce Kellogg

Arlene Kellogg, age 78 of St. Croix Falls passed away on September 25, 2025.

As one of ten siblings, Arlene cultivated an unbreakable bond with her family, which was the cornerstone of her life. Arlene’s sculptures of each grandchild stand as enduring tributes to the love she held for each of them. Each summer, Arlene cherished her “sisters week,” a time devoted to reconnecting and celebrating the unbreakable sisterhood that defined her life.

Arlene was an enthusiast of games, often gathering with family for lively rounds of Cribbage and Yahtzee, where her laughter would fill the room. Her favorite was Farkle, and those close to her remember the “ I Sparkle when I Farkle” shirt she adored. She enjoyed the art of gardening, transforming her yard into a vibrant nursery of flowers, trees and plants, proudly showcasing her green thumb for all to admire. Her legendary Thanksgiving dinners were a much-anticipated highlight of family gatherings, featuring her exquisite pumpkin pie and corn casserole.
