I was saddened to read of Arlane's passing. We were 2nd Cousins (her Grandma Belle was sister to my Grandpa Royal). In the fall of 1975 I visited your parents and grandparents in East Jordan, along with my parents (Neil & Bertha Saunders) and my aunt and uncle (Eugene & Elnore Smith) and I have fond memories of your mom. We enjoyed the trip so much as we visited the Saunders homestead, the Burley homestead, Todd Cemetery, Gwendon's farm, and Belle's. You were probably too young to remember, but I have photos from that trip which I'd be happy to share, if you'd like to get in touch. Much heartfelt sympathy,

I would love to see those pictures. Thank you for the kind words. Yes I would have been about ten years old then.

I'd like to extend my thoughts and prayer to the family of Arlane , I knew as a friend and bridge partner and also a member of St Joseph's Church. She was a person that had a beautiful smile and a caring heart. She also had many talents, I saw some of her art work which was awesome. She will be missed. May the Lord give her family peace and comfort during this time as he wraps her in his glory.

I am very grateful that Mom had such good friends to spend time with while playing bridge. She had hoped to play this week; even cancer and feeling weak did not dampen her desire to be with her friends playing cards. Thank you for making her final years more fun and interesting!

I cannot tell you how much joy that gave her, both bridge and the pool. She loved her friends there, and I am forever grateful that she had all of you!

We are so sorry for your loss of Arlane. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. She was a wonderful lady! Always at every football, basketball, and baseball game during our high school years. Patience of a saint to put up with all of us rowdy guys that hung out with Cliff at her house! She will truly be missed!
