Arlene was a wonderful person. She was our neighbor and friend. We had many chats,walks to McDonald's and the the Farmers Market in the park. When we were working outside (or sometimes just sitting on the porch) Arlene would show up quite frequently with a "3 o'clock break"treat. Usually a rice krispie treat or juice. She's always give us a phone call or a card or something she had made for little neighborly things we had done for her. We miss her so much. We know she is happy, but our prayers go out to family and friends at their loss. Cheryl & Danny Wright.

Arlene was such a very special woman. My son and I have so many cherished memories of time shared with her. We feel so fortunate to have not only had the opportunity to know her as a friend but also as a member of our family. She will be greatly missed.Melanie Ricketts

To Sherri and family. My deepest condolences to you. I used to sneak into the sewing factory with my girlfriend to see her mom and Arlene would make sure no one saw us or either she just tried to ignore it. She always had a smile on her face and she reminded me of my great-grandmother. I know she is with the Lord now and she's still beaming from ear to ear. God bless.
