I will miss your charming personality, sweet smile and love for our lord Jesus Christ, but it doesn't mean I will not see you again someday. It's a joyful day to know he is by your side now, no more sorrow, no more pain, you are where we all long to be. Reserve a spot for those of us who loved you dearly during your time on this earth.Rest my sister, you earned it, you good and faithful servant of God!

Dario & family; my heart goes out to you; Arlene's beautiful smile & friendship will never be forgotten! My prayer for you all is God's strength peace Love & unity in these very difficult days!!
Psalms 23:1-6The LORD is my shepherd;
there is nothing I lack.
He lets me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He renews my life;
He leads me along the right paths
for His name's sake.
Even when I go through the darkest valley,
I fear no danger,
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff - they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
as long as I live.
