Besides her husband, Arlene was predeceased by her son Timothy, her granddaughter Kerri, her siblings, Arnold, Wesley, Richard, Howard, Jean and Bonnie.
Arlene was loving, kind and known to everyone as “Grandma” who always had a tin of her oatmeal raisin cookies ready to enjoy with a game of cribbage or scrabble. She loved spending time with her family. Arlene loved everything nature, taking walks through the woods, feeding her birds, tending to her beautiful flower and vegetable gardens. She enjoyed quilting and was a member of a bowling league. She was full of life and adventure and will be missed by everyone.
The family will share more information about a celebration of life in 2024. In Lieu of flowers please make donations to a Nature or Wildlife Center such as: https://act.audubon.org
