Arlene was a wonderful woman. I don't think she realized how many lives she touched and how much she will be missed.
I will miss getting a birthday card from her every year, something I could count on like clockwork, her concern for everything happening in my life and the way she called me her favorite young bat.
Until we meet again, love you, Mom.
