Arlene was a neighbor and friend for many years in North Branford. Our children went to school together and in later years we met for dinners with mutual friends and to do crafts even though Arlene wasn´t exactly a craft person . She was always a meticulous lady and always looked gorgeous. Andy and I are so very sad to learn about her death.
Carl , Carl jr. and Jared may you find some peace in good memories . Out thoughts and prayers are with you and your families
