My sympathy to the family. Arlene was a wonderful, wonderful person. Her friendship with my Mom was a very special one. I wish you peace in your memories of her.

Our sympathy to Arlene’s family. Arlene was a very special lady. We were neighbors for a few years. She always had a smile and a kind word when we would meet up. May you find comfort in your many memories. God Bless

We have very special memories of visiting Howard and Arlene whenever we’d come home to visit my parents. Arlene always kept us well supplied with her famous “bars”. Will miss them both as they will always be considered a big part of my childhood and my and my mom and dad’s lives. Rest in peace Arlene.
