Arlene had many relatives and close friends that will tell you she would have given the shirt off her back to help any one in need. Her life was a living example of being a generous, kind, and compassionate person. She enjoyed spending time with her family (extended family as well), going out to dinner with her husband and friends, spending time at the shore, and watching the Hallmark channel.�Shopping was a pastime that she and Amanda enjoyed together. One of her greatest joys in life was being a Mom Mom. She loved being able to spend time and play with Matthew. Arlene met Hal while still in high school. She later worked in her father's/brother-in-law's wall covering business while raising two children. She will be dearly missed by all.
