I am so sad, Arlene was my friends mom, but I am also proud to call her my friend too. We had a lot of special times, we got close and had a lot of good conversations. She was a funny person too with a great sense of humor. We always had fun at our Christmas gatherings, just made plans last week for this year, and yes we will still gather and remember the years we have had. I am so blessed to have friends like Arlene and this bunch of women,a friendship that has spanned over 35 yrs. God Bless Arlene, I miss her already. Rest in heaven your race is run. God Bless the family.
