Condolences

My thoughts and prayers are with Uncle Edgar, David, Sharon and Michael.  We all loved Aunt Arlene.  I know my mom and her are both together again.  I can picture them sitting at the kitchen table with their coffee.  Love, Debbie

Aunt Arlene, you will be fondly missed.  You were a huge part of my childhood.  I will always remember all the time we spent together, watching you cook, helping you take wash down off the clothesline and listening to Randy Travis with you.  I had so much fun with you and Sharon painting ceramics and just hanging out at the house.  I will never forget when we went to the cabin in Potter County and Aunt Gerry showered outside on a windy day and that curtain blew up a little too high and we all laughed until we cried!  We all saw a little too much that day. Thinking of Uncle Edgar, David, Michael and especially, Sharon.  I will miss you.  Love always, Leslie.
