She enjoyed traveling to islands where she could enjoy the beauty of the beaches and the sound of the waves crashing . She also enjoyed watching her shows and ordering from QVC . She could always make us laugh with her crazy nik naks and Christmas lights all year round . She did what made her happy and nobody was to tell her differently . She was a role model of truth to all who knew her .
With all the things that Arlene enjoyed in life the one thing that she absolutely loved the most was getting together with her family . She always looked forward to a family party where she could watch her kids talk and goof off and always leave her laughing . She also really enjoyed spoiling her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Whether it was candy ,
toys or clothes she always had something for them every time she saw them . She was an incredible grandmother and definitely unforgettable . Arlene was always happy and always enjoyed having a great time . From parties to family dinners to vacations she always looked forward to it .
Not only was she an amazing woman and grandmother she was an outstanding mother . She loved her children , grandchildren and great grandchildren more than words can describe .
