Dear Bob. I was stunned to hear about your wife's passing. When Arlene worked at South Hills High School, I was in the district office at Covina-Valley USD, and spoke with her many times. I even got to meet her on several occasions and liked her very much. She was a real lady, very kind, gracious, and very helpful to me. I am so sorry she is gone. I know you will see her again, because of our Savior's death and resurrection which makes it possible. May God bless YOU now with peace and many good memories as you try to get on with your life.
Sincerely, Mary Alice Mortensen (Harry Mortensen's wife -- he has been gone for 3-1/2 years now, and each day is getting easier to get through).

Dear Bob,
I'm so sorry for your loss. When my dad was alive, he wanted me to call Arlene and talk to her about the Kendalls. Although I only got to speak to her once, I'm so glad I had the opportunity. I loved hearing the stories and information she shared about the family, and she was so sweet and personable! My mom also thought highly of her and said she was a really neat lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Mr. Pfeil, Robb, Kelly and beautiful granddaughters, I am so very sorry for your loss. Mrs. Pfeil was a wonderful lady who truly was a gem, they broke the mold after she was born. We shared many stories about our love for our pets, but her greatest love and joy was her family. She adored all of you.
