God never made a sweeter lady! She was always so dignified.
I was just a kid when I met Arline, she certainly put up me a lot!
If she ever got angry with me, I never knew it
She was always so giving and gracious. I loved this wonderful woman!!! She and William were my hero's!
The Lord has welcomed her home with open arms.
My heart goes out to her family as I know their grief, but the reunion will be worth all of their tears.

Rest in Heaven my sweet Aunt. I will always remember your beautiful smile and contagious laughter. Growing up, I always loved your and Uncle Bill's visits especially getting to play with the dogs. I have so admired your grace and steadiness throughout the years. Your gentle but firm personality complemented Uncle Bill's rough and tough exterior so well. I know that we will miss you here on earth, but so many people are rejoicing with you in Heaven. Say hello to everyone and give my sweet Granny a hug for me.

Aunt Arline, a beautiful, sweet, stylish, amazing woman! You will forever remain in the fondest memories of my childhood. I remember being so excited to hear you and uncle Bill were visiting. Your accent, (what youin's been up to), was a phrase I would love to share with my friends at school after our time together. Those late nights just sitting up talking about everything: politics, religion, farming, family has stayed with me.
As a young, impressionable girl, I saw and experienced so much love, respect, and wisdom from an amazing aunt and uncle. Youins' inspired me to be better, do more, go farther. From majoring in politics to law school, the inspiration both of you showed me as a young girl remained a constant, reassuring me that I could do anything.
Today, as I am much older, I love the opportunities to share with my daughter, college students, and friends the memories of those visits with my Aunt Arline and Uncle Bill. Please know, I will forever treasure those memories made. Your smile, hugs, style, and laughter is eternally ingrained in my mind.
You will be missed everyday! I take comfort in the amazing "presence" you leave behind. P.S. Tell Uncle Bill, "we have some catching up to do."
