My dear friend Arlene, you were one of the best and I will miss you so so much. You will always hold a special place in my heart. We had many great adventures together and made some fantastic memories that I will never forget. Love you. xxx Much love and sympathy to the family, thinking of you all. It was such a beautiful send off. ❤️❤️❤️
Arlene, I was only able to meet you one time but in that one meeting you made such a big impact on me. Alana introduced me to you and Daryl at an event where I only knew a couple people and you both made me feel so safe and welcome. You took me under your wing and you became my adopted Mumma for the night. I could tell from that one meeting that you were such a special soul with a beautiful heart, you radiated kindness. You’ve left behind a beautiful legacy and I know you’ll never be forgotten. Thank you for being the person you were, rest easy
Rest in Love you Beautiful Lady🩷
Arlene, you were always such a friendly, caring person. You had a gentle, quiet nature, and were happy to chat and easy going. It was always lovely to see you and talk about what our kids were up to. Much love and sympathy to the family. Be kind to yourselves as you adjust to life without Mum being physically present. You all carry some of her great qualities, so her legacy continues in you. xx Leisa (Sean and Matt's Mum)
