I'm so sorry to hear of Arlene's passing. We had become very good friends while working together at A.N. Wolf. I also used to go to the VFW to visit with her when she was working. I'm sorry I lost touch with her over the years but I asked about her several times from a former classmate who would see her at the club. Deepest condolences to the family. I pray that your many wonderful memories of Arlene will help to comfort you at this difficult time. I am truly sorry I will not be able to attend the services since I'll be traveling that day.
